HIKING IN THE WOODS

Three men are hiking through the woods, and they come to a raging river. The water is so deep and so fast that it seems impossible to cross.

The first man offers a prayer, "Please, Lord, give me the strength to cross this river." The Lord decides that this is a reasonable request. A cloud settles over the man, and when it lifts, he is taller, with legs like tree trunks and massive arms. He struggles to cross the river, and after 4 hours, he makes it.

The second man offers a prayer, "Please, Lord, give me the strength and ability to cross this river." The Lord decides this is a reasonable request; a cloud settles over the man, and when it lifts, he has massive arms, and there is a rowboat next to him. He struggles across the
river, and after 3 hours, he makes it across.

The third man offers a prayer, "Please, Lord, give me the strength,
ability and wisdom to cross this river."

The Lord decides this is a reasonable request; a cloud settles around the man, and when it lifts, he has been changed into a woman. She looks at a map, walks 100 yards downstream, and crosses the bridge!!
