A nun and a priest were stranded in the desert after their camel died.
\nThe priest looked toward the horizon.<\/p>\n
\u201cSister, we\u2019re not likely to make it.\u201d
\nThe nun nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe need a miracle.\u201d
\nThe priest suddenly had an idea.<\/p>\n
\u201cSister, I may know a way to save us.\u201d<\/p>\n
She looked hopeful.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow?\u201d
\nHe pointed toward a distant ridge.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we can reach that hill, we might be able to see the road.\u201d<\/p>\n
The nun smiled.
\n\u201cSo that\u2019s your big plan?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly.\u201d<\/p>\n
They gathered what little water they had left and began walking.
\nAfter several exhausting hours, they finally reached the top.<\/p>\n
The nun suddenly shouted,<\/p>\n
\u201cFather! Look!\u201d
\nIn the distance was a highway.<\/p>\n
And beside it stood a large sign:<\/p>\n
REST STOP \u2014 2 MILES
\nThe priest dropped to his knees.<\/p>\n
\u201cPraise be!\u201d<\/p>\n
The nun laughed.
\n\u201cWe\u2019re saved!\u201d<\/p>\n
They started walking again.<\/p>\n
After a few minutes, the priest looked at her.
\n\u201cYou know, Sister\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYes?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI was beginning to think we\u2019d never make it.\u201d
\nShe smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cNever lose faith, Father.\u201d<\/p>\n
He nodded.<\/p>\n
\u201cOr directions.\u201d<\/p>\n
And the nun replied,<\/p>\n
\u201cEspecially directions.\u201d
