It was mentioned as a story about a man who prayed for salvation and then acted as if he saved himself. It was used as an example of forgetting God in the day of deliverance.
He said a man was patching a pitched roof of a tall building when he began sliding off.
Oh yeah. As he neared the edge of the roof, he prayed, save me Lord and I'll go to church every Sunday. I'll give up drinking. I'll be the best man this city has ever known.
As he finishes his prayer, a nail snagged onto his overalls and saved him.
The man looked up to the sky and shouted, never mind God, I took care of it myself.
