This reminds me of a parable.  There was this really religious guy living a
religious life and one day a big flood came.  The water was up to his front
porch and someone in a boat came by and offered him a lift.  He said, "No
thanks, the lord will look after me.".  Then the water rose to the second
floor.  As he was looking out the second floor window someone else came
along in a boat and offered him a lift.  He said, "No thanks, the lord will
take care of me".  Then the water covered most of his roof.  As he was
sitting on his chimney yet another person came by in a boat and offered him
a lift.  "No thanks, I trust in the lord and he will take care of me."  Then
the water rose above the chimney and the man was swept away and drowned.

He ended up in heaven and asked the lord "What happened, I trusted in you
and you let me drown anyway?"  The lord replied "What do you mean?  I sent
three boats!"
