““A man was on a rooftop during a horrific flood. “Lord, save me,” he shouted to the heavens. After a bit, a boat came by with a rabbi in it. “Come with me, son. I can help.” “No,” said the man. “God will save me.” In a bit, another boat came by with a protestant minister at the helm. “Come with me,” he called out. “I can help.” “No, God will save me.” A third boat came by as the waters were rising dangerously close to the top of the house. From it, a Catholic priest offered a ride. Again the man declined. Not long after that, the waters reached his feet. Then his waist. He shouted up to the Lord, “I had faith you’d save me. You deserted me.” The heavens opened up and God spoke to him. “I didn’t desert you. I sent you three boats.””
