A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer. All of a
sudden, he said out loud, "Lord, grant me one wish." The sky clouded
above his head and in a booming voice, the Lord said, "Because you have
tried to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish."
The man said, "Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over anytime I
want."
The Lord said, "Your request is very materialistic. Think of the
enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking. The supports required
to reach the bottom of the Pacific! The concrete and steel it would
take! I can do it, but it is hard for me to justify your desire for
worldly things. Take a little more time and think of another wish, a
wish you think would honor and glorify me."
The man thought about it for a long time. Finally he said, "Lord, I wish
that I could understand women. I want to know how they feel inside, what
they are thinking when they give the silent treatment, why they cry,
what they mean when they say 'nothing', and how I can make a woman truly
happy."
The Lord replied, "You want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?"
