The
Driving
Permit
A
teen
boy
had
just
gotten
his
driving
permit.
He
asked
his
father,
who
was
a
minister,
if
they
could
discuss
the
use
of
the
car.
His
father
took
him
to
his
study
and
said
to
him,
"I'll
make
a
deal
with
you.
You
bring
your
grades
up,
study
your
bible
a
little
and
get
your
hair
cut
and
we'll
talk
about
it."
After
about
a
month
the
boy
came
back
and
again
asked
his
father
if
they
could
discuss
use
of
the
car.
They
again
went
to
the
father's
study
where
his
father
said,
"Son,
I've
been
real
proud
of
you.
You
have
brought
your
grades
up,
you've
studied
your
bible
diligently,
but
you
didn't
get
your
hair
cut!"
The
young
man
waited
a
moment
and
replied,
"You
know
Dad,
I've
been
thinking
about
that.
You
know,
Samson
had
long
hair,
Moses
had
long
hair,
Noah
had
long
hair,
and
even
Jesus
had
long
hair...."
To
which
his
father
replied...."Yes,
and
they
WALKED
everywhere
they
went!"
