The Patter August 30
On God’s Time
A man walked to the top of a hill to talk to God.
The man asked, ‘God, what’s a million years to you?” and God said, “a minute.”
Then the man asked, “Well, what’s a million dollars to you?” and God said, “A penny.”
Then the man asked, “God… can I have a penny?” and God said, “Sure…. In a minute.”
