I got the same call this morning - Katy Tx. It's not enough to deal with all the 800 numbers calling, Comcast bugging us to subscribe to more options to get more money out of us and then another phone call with a recorded message thanks us for whatever.

I'd like to think that God has the capability of touching those who need it without creeping them out or making them worried and paranoid. And that he wouldn't choose spamming the telephone lines with generic messages to do so. Pretty sure he wouldn't call from Wisconsin either...though even God must get a hankering for some cheese, I suppose. If you really think God is calling you on your phone, do you think doing a google search is going to verify that? "Googling for God!" Man, that's sad stuff.

I received this same message at 9:30 am today. I am in Houston and the call was made to my cell. Don't know where it came from, but in a way it made me think that someone thought something nice about me and the message made me feel good.

Brandee-Apparently those of us in Houston are so divine that God calls us directly on our home phones. Or some terrible incident is about to wipe out Houston and we're the lucky folks getting a heads up.Max-Is it that weird to get a message saying you're loved? Doesn't your mama call at least?ALL-Sounds like somebody got a hold of many people's information in the Houston area, so there is some link there. Identity theft isn't a gift from God. Why the weirdo calls? No clue. But "Hi, I'm Chucky! Wanna play?" is a pretty friendly message too, but FAR from innocent. Don't answer calls you don't know. Let a machine or voicemail (that offers NO PERSONAL INFORMATION about you) get them. I heart Jeebus too folks & appreciate your unfailing optimistic faith and all that jazz...but Jeebus aint collecting on credit card debts or offering portions of social security numbers or calling from numbers that spell out "Christmass" or anything else. I call on God and all he sends is a lousy automated message? Sounds like a bad tshirt slogan or bumper sticker.

Just got the same call and message from same number. I live in Cypress, Texas 281 area code

I received exactly the same message last Friday, August 22,2008, and I was stunned. The operator told me that 247 is not an area code, it is a country code. I looked it up and it is the country code for the Island of Ascension, in the South Atlantic. My friends told me that this was God calling. I believe they are right! Whenever I pray, good things happen to me, and God knows I need his help. He always comes through for me. So all of you who received this or similar message, you are blessed!

I received call at 10:20 am w/female automated voice stating "thank you for all you've done today and all the days before. You are truly loved. Your Friend" I am also in Houston. Googled number and found this site. sounds fishy to me.

No wonder con artists thrive so easily these days. It's disappointing to see how many people believe this call is related to something they did. You call enough phone numbers and you're bound to hook someone. The people behind these calls are counting on the fact that some of you believe that there are those who would call and thank you out of the goodness of their heart. They'll call back wanting something eventually. Don't be a sucker.

The call . . ."Thank you for all you've done . . ." came on 1/15 to my Houston home phone number. It's obviously from God. Or the IRS. Or Joel Osteen. . .Whoever.I'm just so proud to be remembered! !Well, I could do without the IRS . . .

I just got it at 10:45....northeast Houston....maybe someone is just being nice, however, with all the news stories about pushing this number or callers from other countries then using your number for long distance calls, also prisoners getting others numbers for their rackets....how come something so nice has to make us all worry??!! I am on the "do not call" list also, but still get calls :( Has anyone had any repercussions? Maybe it is a study of some kind to see if people can accept someone being nice anymore without wondering what bad thing is behind it! Isn't it strange that you can goggle a phone number and have all these messages come up? It was nice to hear, I agree. So if someone making the calls is monitoring these messages and you have no ulterior motive, thank you...you are very kind :)
