Send in the Military
There was once a religious man who was very fond of God. One day there was a giant flood which dragged him out to sea.
An Army Ranger came to rescue him and said, "sir, please come with me or you will surely drown".
The man replied, "no, I believe in God and I know that HE will rescue me."
As the water got much deeper,a U.S. Marine chopper flew over and a Marine yelled to him, "jump on or you will drown."
Again the man replied, "no, I believe in God and I know HE will rescue me."
Soon the water was up to his nose and a Navy Seal came on a boat and said, "jump in or else!"
Again the man said, "no, I believe in God and i know HE will rescue me."
Finally, an Air Force jet appeared and over the loud roar a voice said, "sir, if you don't grab on to our rope,YOU WILL DROWN!
Sure enough,the man drowned. When he arrived at the pearly gates of heaven he saw God and asked, "what happened? I am a very devoted person towards you and YOU let me drown? Why didn't you save me?!"
And God replied, "You idiot! I did try to save you! I sent the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines! How do you think they found you? An act of God, perhaps?"
