Prophecy

We assume that God speaks only to special people, unique people, extraordinarily endowed people, people with spectacular gifts, people with ecclesiastical authority, people with power and prestige and influence. We tend to think being human debars s from hearing God: we are too frail, too fragile, too fickle, too sinful, too weak. We don't have beauty or position; we can't speak well in public; our education is minimal, and therefore God wouldn't speak to us. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
