There was once a very poor person who was also very stingy.
But his manner of praying to God must be one of the most famous, even more so than the Bible's "Give us this day our daily bread." (Matthew 6:11)
So the old miser was heard saying his prayers like this: "Oh, my God, my Lord! My Almighty! If the Almighty - may Your holy name be blessed forever - if You gave me a hundred thousand dollars, I would immediately give ten thousand to the poor. I promise I would! You know that, don't You? And if the Almighty - may Hes be blessed - does not trust me about my promise, then please deduct the ten thousand in advance and only give me ninety thousand." |
