River Joke

Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a wide, violent, raging river.  Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed -

"God, please give me the strength to cross the river."

Flash!!!  God have him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about two hours, having almost drowned twice.

After witnessing what the first man did, the second man prayed -

"God, please give me the strength and the tools to cross the river."

Flash!!! God gave him a rowboat and two strong arms and legs and he was able to row across in about an hour after almost capsizing once.

On seeing what had happened to the first two men, the third man prayed

"God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river."

Flash!!!  He was turned into a woman. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards upstream and walked across the bridge.
