An old man is caught in flood and is up to his waist in water, the fire brigade arrives to rescue him and he rebuffs the by saying " God will save me, ill put my trust in the Lord"
He is now up to his chest an the navy arrives in a dingy, again he rebuffs them repeating his previous reason.
Time passes and the water is just about up to his chin and a Air -sea rescue helicopter arrives. Again he rebuffs them with his original reason .
Alas, sadly the old man drowns and goes to heaven and god meets him at the door and he rebukes god saying "I put my trust in you and you let me down" God smiles and says "no I didnt I sent the fire brigade ..... the navy AND the air sea rescue"
God works in mysterious ways.
