Three men were walking along when they came upon a wide, raging river. They needed to get to the other side, but had no idea how to do so. The first man prayed to God: "Please, God, give me the strength to cross this river." And POOF! God gave him powerful arms and strong legs, and he was able to swim across the mighty river in two hours. Seeing this, the second man prayed: "Please, God, give me the strength and ability to cross this river." And POOF! God gave him a rowing boat, and he was able to row across the river in an hour. The third man saw how this tactic worked for the other two, and so he prayed: "Please, God, give me the strength, ability, and intelligence to cross this river." And POOF! God turned him into a woman. She looked at a map, then walked across the bridge.
