A man has been in business for many, many years and the business
is going down the drain. He is seriously contemplating suicide
and he doesn’t know what to do. He goes to the Pastor to seek
his advice.
.
He tells the Pastor about all of his problems in the business
and asks the Pastor what he should do. The Pastor says,
.
“Take a beach chair and a Bible and put them in your car and
drive down to the edge of the ocean. Go to the water’s edge.
Take the beach chair out of the car, sit on it and take the
Bible out and open it up. The wind will rifle the pages for a
while and eventually the Bible will stay open at a particular
page. Read the Bible and it will tell you what to do.”
.
The man does as he is told.
.
He places a beach chair and a Bible in his car and drives down
to the beach. He sits on the chair at the water’s edge and
opens the Bible. The wind rifles the pages of the Bible and
then stops at a particular page. He looks down at the Bible and
sees what he has to do.
.
Three months later the man and his family come back to see the
Pastor. The man is wearing a $1,000 Italian suit, the wife is
all decked out with a full-length mink coat, and the child is
dressed in beautiful silk.
.
The man hands the Pastor a thick envelope full of money and
tells him that he wants to donate this money to the church in
order to thank the Pastor for his wonderful advice.
.
The Pastor is delighted. He recognizes the man and asks him
what advice in the bible brought this good fortune to him.
.
The man replies: “Chapter 11.”.For our international friends that might not understand,
“Chapter 11.” Chapter 11 is the American term for bankruptcy.
