I was afraid to say anything but eventually I said, “What in the world
do you mean?” 

She looked at me with those giggly dancing eyes and said, “You are
always offering to fix something with your hammer. Why don't you offer 
to give them your hammer so that they can fix Washington?” 

Was she serious? Or, was she setting me up for something? 

Staring at me she finally broke down into hilarious laughter. 

“How better could they fix Washington than using your hammer?” 

It does not happen often, but I wholeheartedly agreed with what she was
saying. 

If Washington is broken, and I am not sure what that means, perhaps they
could fix it with my hammer by smashing everything in Washington. My 
hammer is a good tool for that kind of work. I cannot tell you how many 
things I have smashed unintentionally with my hammer. 

We enjoyed a hearty laugh on that one. I never knew my wife to be
politically minded like this. However, she had it. Then I said, “Why 
don't you run for some political office? I'll let you borrow my 
hammer.” We laughed some more and I got to thinking. How would 
Washington change if my wife was elected to some office and borrowed my 
hammer? She surely would get things done, I am sure. 

Her “fix-it” ability along with my hammer would go a long way in fixing
Washington. 

As I thought of that I was reminded of what King Solomon said, “The way
of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right” 
(Proverbs 21:8). 

Some things are too broken to fix for any person except God. There is no
person so broken that he cannot fix and fix for eternity. 

So, Mr. Politician Fix-It, you can use my hammer at any time if you want
to.
