Faith...

A man loved to hunt in the winter. One bitter cold day, the man took his gun, dressed warmly, and went to hunt deer.As he was walking across the countryside, he came across the tracks of a deer and began stalking the prey with intensity.

Before long, the tracks went across a frozen creek.It was a rather wide creek and the man was not too sure the ice would hold him up.He really could not tell whether the deer was large or small and perhaps the ice could support a deer but not a man. But he wanted that deer so badly that he decided to chance crossing the creek.

The hunter got down on his hands and knees and started to crawl across the creek.When he got about half way across, his imagination started running wild.He could almost hear the ice cracking and thought he was going to fall through the ice at any moment.He wanted desperately to go back, but had already come too far. His heart was palpitating and he felt sure he was lost.

At that moment, the hunter heard a terrible noise. As he looked over his shoulder, he saw coming across the creek a farmer with a wagon-load of wood.The wagon and mules were charging across the creek at full steam, and the farmer was looking down at the hunter as if he was crazy.
