Friday Funnies

Filed under Fun Stuff Friday Funnies

I haven't been posting much lately as my boys have been busy providing future Friday Funnies for me to share. I'm just not laughing yet. But give me a couple weeks (months?) and maybe I'll tell you about them. Let's just say paint was involved and leave it at that for now.

Here's a Friday Funny we received from one of our most encouraging readers, Cindy Campbell. As she herself points out, the theology is askew but it's a good opportunity to laugh at ourselves.

"A man walking along a California beach was deep in prayer.  Suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, 'Because you have been 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!  It will nearly exhaust several natural resources.  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 something that would honor and glorify me.'

The man thought about it for a long time.  Finally he said, 'Lord, I wish that I could understand my wife.  I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when she says "nothing's wrong," and how I can make a woman truly happy.'

The Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four on that bridge?'"

Have a restful weekend everyone (and especially you moms out there!)
