GOD
WILL PROVIDE
The relationship between a young couple who met on a religious online dating service began to blossom and soon the two were engaged.
So one day the young woman, whose folks had a lot of money, took
her fiancee' 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."
