Exam Four
For the first time in six weeks, a father reunites with his wife and kids. Their abrupt pause together was due to dad finally admitting that he had a gambling problem, and seeking professional help. The Christian family will have to re-start their life-savings, and the college funds. But they are more than willing. Many others would also recommend that their current residence in Las Vegas be altered too! However, the "social "chips” of childhood friends would be lost in this gamble since they live there too. Therefore, the casino nighttime in between their days would no doubt have an easy target in the recovering addict. One night, it was too easy. The father and his car were missing ever since 2:00 am. Hours later, he returned; but the car did not. Ultimately the pink slip stayed with the pink casino. And his wife was red. After a long heated exchange, loud enough to reverse the lullaby to the children, the mother comes up with a plan. She wants to develop a covenant with God. Unable to control her husband, she proposes that every time he ventures off to gamble, that God just let him win. She will in turn, give all the earnings to a charity of God’s choice. Will this work? Why or Why not?
