God is always helping us. We just don't see it, understand it or recognizes it . One reason is that we expect him to solve all our problems instantly and make our life a paradise. Is that not what he is doing.

A man was sitting on his roof due to flooding praying for help
a boat came buy to help and the man on the roof . The man said no God will help me
This happened two more times and the man died
The man went to heaven and asked god why did you not help me. God said I sent a boat three times.

We most likly heard this saying before but it sure is based in truth
