Have you ever wished God would just make it easy? That He would fly over your house in a blimp, or sky-write His will so that it was plain and obvious? Have you ever envied the angel-set – those seemingly lucky (ahem – “blessed”) souls who had Michael or Gabriel drop by for tea and prophecy?
A few years ago somebody in Jacksonville (I think) started a nationwide conversation with a series of billboard messages supposedly from God. I’m sure you’ve seen some of them. (Example: “Which part of ‘Thou Shalt Not’ do you not understand?” -God). They were clever, sometimes convicting, sometimes sarcastic and funny. But in case you were wondering, it really wasn’t God Himself who designed the ad campaign.
What if God really did rent a billboard? Would it be easier, simpler, clearer to hear His voice? I doubt it.
