The Problem is Not the Toilet Paper Roll
You've had to use the bathroom for a while; in fact, you've been holding it painfully too long, waiting for your spouse to finish. After wearing a pattern in the carpet, you finally make it inside; squeezing as tightly as possible while you get in position, so as not to make a mess. You sit down, breathe a sigh of relief, close your eyes, and tilt your head back; thankful that your bladder no longer feels like it's holding a car. You're completely relieved and as you reach for the toilet paper...there are only three little squares dangling from the roll.

Though these statements are worldly; not scriptural, I can still appreciate the positive perspective.
