There Was A Storm...

There was a storm, and the flood waters started rising. Everyone began to evacuate except for one man, who decided to stay behind on his roof.

When the flood waters were still relatively low, a truck came up and offered to take him to safety.

"No no," said the man. "God will save me."

Later on, as the flood waters were a little higher, a boat came up and offered to rescue him.

"It's okay," said the man. "God will save me."

Finally, as the waters submerged his house and he was on the verge of drowning, a helicopter arrived and offered to take him to safety.

"I need not your help," he said, struggling to keep his head afloat. "God will take care of me."

Eventually he gave out and drowned, and was sent to heaven, where he met God.

"Why didn't you save me?" he inquired to God.

"What do you mean, I tried saving you three times!"
