The Other Flood

Topic: Jokes, Provision

A great flood swept across a great countryside, and a Christian couple were trapped upon a roof. The waters continued to rise when a boat came towards them. "Do you need some help?" the man in the boat asked.
"No. Jesus will save us." came the reply.

A couple of hours later, another boat came to their aid. By this time, the water was halfway up the roofline. "You folks need some help?" was the question. "No. Jesus will save us." again was their reply.

A couple of more hours later and the water was now lapping over the peak of the roof, when a helicopter came over. A man was hoisted down.
"You folks need some help?" he asked. "No. Jesus will save us." once more was the reply.

A few more hours passed and the couple died. At the pearly gates, they requested to see Jesus. "What happened lord? We've lived our entire lives for you. We prayed un-ceasingly to you and believed in you. Why did you let us down?"

The Lord replied. "What are you mad at me for? I sent you 2 boats and a helicopter."
