One day, the Pastor sees Matthew walking slowly out of Church. Matthew is dejected, disheveled and looks terrible.
"Matthew," asked the Pastor, "what's the matter?"
"Well, Pastor, my business is shot, I'm losing my house and my wife says she is going to leave me and take the kids if I don't straighten things out. I just don't know what to do."
"Matthew, find the answer in the Bible," the Pastor replied. And Matthew left.
Four months later, the Pastor sees Matthew coming out of Church, only this time, he's wearing an Armani suit, a nice cap and lighting a big old cigar.
"Matthew, you look great! Did you follow my advice?"
"I did. I went home that day and decided to open the Bible and to follow the advice I saw. So I opened the Bible and the first phrase I saw said:
Matthew Chapter 11."
