Three Men on a Hike

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 the 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 the river' Poof! .. He was turned into a
woman. She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards up stream and
walked across the bridge.
