07/11/13 Grif.Net – God Will Provide

One day a young woman, whose folks had a lot of money, took her fiancĂ©’ home
to meet her parents. The mother had instructed her husband before they
arrived to be sure to pull the young man aside to learn more about him. So
after dinner, the father asked the young man to join him in his study where
he proceeds to ask him several questions.

“What are your plans for life?” the father asked..

“I am a religious scholar,” the young man replied.

“A religious scholar. Hmmmm,” the father responded. “That’s admirable, but
what will you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to live in, as
she’s accustomed to?”

“I will study,” came the response. “And God will provide for us.”

“And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring, such as she
deserves?” asked the father.

“I will concentrate on my studies,” the young man replied. “God will
provide for us.”

“And children?” asked the father. “How will you support children?”

“Don’t worry, sir,” replied the young man. “God will provide.”

To every question the young man simply responded that God would provide.

After the two had left, the mother quickly inquired about the talk.

“How did it go?” she asked.

The father responded:

“The bad news is, he has no job and no plans. However, the good news is he
thinks I’m God.”
