A parishioner cried to his Priest, “I just can’t take it
anymore! No matter how hard I try, I just can’t seem to put bread on the
table!” And the Priest said to him, “Listen closely to what I am going to tell
you. Go to a quiet place outdoors where you can spend some time with the Lord.
Sit down with the Bible in front of you and let the wind turn the pages, while
you close your eyes and think about the Lord. When you open your eyes, see what
page the Bible is opened to, and there you will find your message.”
Three months later the Priest was walking up the church
steps when he spotted the parishioner speeding by in a brand new Lexus. “Hey!”
screamed the priest incredulously. “What happened? Let me hear your story!” And
the parishioner said, “Well, it was just as you said. I sat in a quiet place,
closed my eyes, and when I opened them the answer was right in front of me. It
was opened to Chapter 11!”
