Very interesting episode.
Reminds me of a story about a man caught at home in a flood. He kept on asking God to save him. A rescuer came by on a high wheeled vehicle, and asked him to come aboard, and the man told him that he was waiting for God to save him.As the water crept up, the man went to his 2nd floor. Another rescuer came by in a boat, and told the man to jump on in. The man said that he was waiting for God to save him.Then the water crept up higher, and the man went on the roof, and a rescue helicopter came by. The man refused once again, and said that God was going to save him.The water went up even higher, and the man drowned.

God sends up people in our lives for a reason. Some, I do believe, are angels in disguise. When we refuse God's help that He channels through his servants,we are also refusing Him.
