Atheist
An atheist was spending a quiet day fishing when suddenly his
boat was attacked by the Loch Ness monster. In one easy flip,
the beast tossed him and his boat at least a hundred feet into
the air. The monster then opened its mouth while waiting below
to swallow man and boat.
As the man sailed head over heels and started to fall towards
the open jaws of the ferocious beast he cried out, "Oh, my
God! Help me!"
Suddenly, the scene froze in place. As the atheist hung in
midair, a booming voice came out of the clouds and said, "I
thought you didn't believe in Me!"
"God, come on, give me a break!" the man pleaded, "Just
seconds ago I didn't believe in the Loch Ness monster either!"
"Well," said God, "now that you are a believer you must
understand that I won't work miracles to snatch you from
certain death in the jaws of the monster, but I can change
hearts. What would you have me do?"
The atheist thinks for a minute and then says, "God, please
have the Loch Ness Monster believe in You also." God replies,
"So be it."
The scene starts in motion again with the atheist falling
towards the ravenous jaws of the ferocious beast.
Then the Loch Ness Monster folds his claws together and says,
"Lord, bless this food You have so graciously provided....."
