Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a large, raging, violent river. Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed: ‘God, please give me the strength to cross the river.’
Poof! God gave him big arms and strong legs, and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours, having almost drowned twice.
After witnessing that, the second man prayed: ‘God, please give me strength and the tools to cross this river.’
Poof! God gave him a rowboat, and strong arms, and strong legs, and he was able to row across in about an hour (after almost capsizing once).
Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed: ‘God, please give me the strength, the tools, and the intelligence, to cross this river.’
Poof! He was turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards upstream, and walked across the bridge.
‘If at first you don’t succeed, do it the way your wife told you!’
