Two Boats Joke
There was a preacher who fell in the ocean and he couldn't swim. When a boat came by, the captain yelled, "Do you need help, sir?" The preacher calmly said "No, God will save me." A little later, another boat came by and a fisherman asked, "Hey, do you need help?" The preacher replied again, "No God will save me." Eventually the preacher drowned & went to heaven. The preacher asked God, "Why didn't you save me?" God replied, "Fool, I sent you two boats!"
I've heard this joke all my life, as a flood. Two boats and helicopter come by as he is trapped on the roof. The moral of the joke is that God uses people to reach out, touch and help people. He also expects us to use our common sense He gave us!
