ah I was going to say the same thing to you, but you said it first.

I like to use the family praying to God for help during a flood. They are on top of the house, surrounded by rushing water, the river has breached its banks tremendously.

God hears their prayers and sends a helicopter.

The father says, "No, we prayed and God will save us!"

Before the helicopter leaves, a fire truck shows up on the side of the hill and tells the father they will be sending down a basket for the family to get into and will be lifted up and away from the water.

The father says, "No, we prayed and God will save us!"

With the helicopter and the firetruck loathe to leave, a boat shows up and the captain tells the father they are there to rescue him and his family. They will send over life jackets and they need only put the jackets on and get in the boat.

The father says, "No, we prayed and God will save us!"

The first responders leave, having others to save.

As the water rises and the family sits alone on their house, the father cries out to God, "Have you foresaken us? We prayed and you did not save us!"

And God said, "I heard you and sent a helicopter, a fire truck, and a boat! You have to do your part!"
