Just a Second

     A man is talking to the Lord, trying to understand His eternal nature. “Lord,” he asked, “what’s a million years to You?”

     “A million years is but a second to me,” the Lord explains.

     “And a million dollars?”

     “A penny,” the Lord replies.

     The man feels bold and now proceeds to ask, “Lord, would You give me one of Your pennies?”

     “Sure,” the Lord replies. “Just a second.”
