A fellow found himself in dire trouble. His
business had gone bust and he was in serious financial trouble. He was so
desperate that he decided to ask
God for help. He began to pray: "God, please help me. I've lost my business
and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me
win the lotto."
Lotto night came and somebody else won. Again the fellow prayed: "God, please
let me win the lotto! I've lost my business, my house and I'm going to lose my
car as well."
Lotto night came and he still had no luck. Once again he prayed: "My God, why
have you forsaken me? I've lost my business, my house and my car. My children
are starving. I don't often ask you for help and I have always been a good
servant to you. Please just let me win the lotto this one time so I can get my
life back in order."
Suddenly there was a blinding flash of light as the heavens opened and the
fellow was confronted by the voice of God himself: "Hey come on now, you are
going to have to meet me halfway on this. Buy a ticket."
