God, Time and Vincent Van Gogh/draft 1

God, Time and Vincent Van Gogh

fiction
edward w pritchard

What if God alone while Vincent Van Gogh lived recognized the painter's unique talent? A talent of one in ten billion.

What if God himself couldn't do whatever he wanted; what if God had to follow certain rules of Determinism. What if one of those rules was that Vincent Van Gogh would only paint for a brief moment and then be permanently gone.

What if in all humanity only Vincent could see the magnificent landscape of the world as God saw it. What if more than anything God wanted a permanent record on canvass of the landscape of his creation.

Could God wait patiently for the next Vincent Van Gogh's brief existence?
