Of Biblical Proportions.

Sydney is shrouded in red dust. The air is murky, the sun can hardly penetrate the gloom, and the haze covers everything. Soon it will taint our water supplies, and undoubtedly there will be respiratory problems in many today.
Meanwhile Sydney is also shrouded in blue and red banners, proclaiming "Jesus, All About Life". But just as when Pharoah refused to acknowledge Yahweh and release the Hebrew slaves, and just as when Israel refused to repent and prophets foretold their demise under oppression, and just as when God Himself walked on earth, demonstrating His control over the wind and waves, sickness, evil spirits and death itself; Sydney will undoubtedly ignore the signs.
Sydney needs to drop the pretense. God is real, and we are so covered in guilt and shame in His presence. We try to cover our guilt and shame by focusing on the superficial. We botox and dermabrase and work out and manscape and makeover, but at the end of the day, we are dying. We seek acceptance and self-worth by rejecting those who actually offer it to us, and seek it in the wrong places. We cheat and lie and bitch about others, in the hope that our own flaws won't be so noticeable. We betray those who love us most, break our promises, and self-destruct.
Wake up Sydney. Your Saviour is reminding you that He is all about life. Read the signs. They're everywhere.
