https://polyploid.net/blog/?p=uqoe5qr38 Father Orthoduck saw this cartoon today and thought that it expressed very nicely some people’s thought pattern. This is the famous, “I don’t think of God until I am in trouble” thought pattern. And, if God does not answer the prayer, then they take that as proof that God does not really care. A variation of the theme above is when someone who has ignored God is in personal trouble and comes sobbing to God, or, even worse, utters that infamous phrase, “How could God let that happen?” as though God’s job description is to ensure serenity of life even for people who have been roundly ignoring Him.

They may not be freed from their trouble or they may be. But, either way, they will often know that God has reached out to touch them, and will have a sense of God’s presence. The person may or may not subsequently respond to God. But, they will have within them the memory of a God who responded to them in their need.
