The Miracle on Bourbon Street?

Today in church, our pastor read aloud an email he had received. The email was an account of Billy Graham leading 16,000 people from a New Orleans arena on a one-mile trek to Bourbon Street and the french quarter. As my pastor read the account, I found myself saying "yes, God" in my heart. I pumped my fist in praise. He went on to say that Billy Graham led the crowd onto Bourbon Street and led many to the Lord.

Unfortunately, the email was proven a hoax from 2006.

Am I disappointed? Yes. But, God can do whatever He wants, whenever He wants. Hope springs eternal and, if God wants to, and we, as Christians ought to, pray for revival to fall in New Orleans like Jonah going to Ninevah, then the story can become true.

In Christ,
Brian S.
