Tips to Help You Drink More Water

Are you a person that loves to drink water? Possibly you are just the opposite. Do you find it difficult to drink enough water throughout the day? Here are a few tips to help with that.

Think About This. . .

***Intentional***

1. Coffee

Are you an avid coffee drinker? Possibly you might want to consider replacing a cup of coffee with a cup or bottle of water. You probably say that is easier said than done. If you do not replace the coffee with water you might consider reducing the amount of coffee you are drinking and supplementing with water.

2. Water Habit

Did you know that you can make drinking water a habit? Drinking water is a good habit to have also. The lifesciencesmagazine.com talks about this. They suggest consistently drinking water at regular intervals throughout the day and establishing a routing that becomes second nature.

3. Challenge a Friend

Did you know that when you exercise with a friend that can be fun? How about challenging a friend to drinking more water?  The mayoclinichealthsystem.org., talks about this. They emphasize that this healthy competition between a friend can be good to see who can meet their drinking goals most often. Also, when a friend is involved you are not trying to do this alone. You have someone to support you as well. They also suggest adding fruit to your water such as lemons, limes, cucumber, watermelon, and strawberries.  They  are good for the flavor. I know that I have heard those that say they do not like the flavor of plain water. I always make it a point that whenever I am at a restaurant to request that they add lemons to my water.

4. Benefits of Adding Lemon to Your Water

Did you know there are many benefits to adding lemon to your drinking water? Adding lemons to your drinking water provide you with vitamin C, BI, B5,B2, promote hydration, is an easy alternative to sugary drinks, helps prevent kidney stones, and may aide in digestion. This is according to healthline.com.

5. Why Drink More Water?

Have you ever asked why you need to drink more water? According to Occupational Therapist, Feminine Leadership Coach, water is essential for nearly every one of your body systems, water can increase your energy levels, water can help you lose weight, water can give you radiant skin, water can boost your immune system, water can support normal hormone production, and water can keep the bowels regular. She further adds that drinking more water when you have been dehydrated is like pouring water on a desert land and that hydrated soil soaks the water in. This does make since. So if you have a constipation problem you might want to take a look and see if you are drinking enough water. I found that when I started drinking more water my energy level was so much higher. So I can attest to the benefits of drinking enough water. Also, keep in mind that the body changes on a daily basis.

Speaking of hydration, I have had relatives complain of stomach pain. After they visited the Emergency Room in the hospital it was discovered that they were dehydrated. Dehydration is a serious problem and should not be taken lightly.

6. Drink More Water to Lose Weight

Did you know that by drinking more water it can help you lose weight? Have you ever heard of lipolysis? This is the process by which our bodies burn fat naturally and convert it into energy and the first step in that process is called hydrolysis. Momtask.com talks about this. When the body adds water to the fat it helps it break the fat down. So increasing your water intake increases the lipolysis in your body, which means you increase your metabolism.

7. Percentage of Water in the Body

Psalm 139:14 I, I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Have you ever considered how wonderful the body is made? Medicalnewstoday.com talks about this. Most of the human body is water, with an average of roughly 60%. They further added that the amount of water in the body can change slightly with age, sex, and hydration levels. Water is essential to your well-being.

8. MyFitnessPal App

I truly like my MyfitnessPal App. I have used this now for several years. It tracks my calorie intake, water intake, and exercise. I like that I have a pedometer app on my cellphone that monitors the number of steps I take per day and it is synched in with my MyfitnessPal App. I recall many years ago when I got the pedometer app to monitor my steps, I discovered at my place of employment I would actually walk 2-3 miles while working. You can also set water reminders on your cellphone. There are just numerous ways to remember to drink more water. I have always been petite and after using the app I discovered I really was not eating enough on a daily basis. This was good for me to find out.

9. Eat the Water

You can add to your water intake by eating foods that are high in water content. Foods that contain 90-100% of water include asparagus, baby carrots, broccoli, cabbage, celery, cucumbers, iceberg or romaine lettuce, peppers, skim milk, spinach, strawberries, and my favorite is watermelon and zucchini. This is talked about at health.harvard.edu.

10. Watermelon- My Favorite

Seeded versus seedless watermelon is the question. What is the basic difference. According to Medium.com seedless fruits are not as healthy. They have fewer vitamins and minerals. They also contain less fiber, which means they are digested more quickly by your body. So eating watermelon may be a matter of preference for you. I would get tired of spitting seeds out, but I feel the benefits are important. So I basically look for seeded watermelons. I really like the seeded watermelons that are sold from  trucks in the neighborhoods. They are awesome.

What Is New With AI (Artificial Intelligence)

AI is growing in leaps and bounds. There is something new to be learned about Ai every minute. Just how much do you know about AI?

Think About This:

***Intentional***

Did You Know. . .

1. Autonomous Vehicles are Here

According to in.element14.com the autonomous driving has increased many folds. They further add that AI can analyze online activity of individuals who search for specific keywords in order to provide a better experience for customers. Have you ever searched for an item online and the later see advertisements on television, advertisements popping up on your cellphone and especially while you are on your social media site?   Did you ever think that this was AI (Artificial Intelligence) at work?

2. Florida is Testing Autonomous Vehicles

Starsky Robotics, a California-based company, has been testing self-driving trucks in Florida, including a 9.4 mile stretch of public highway on the  Florida Turnpike. They further added that the state is actively testing including those related to tolling systems. Have you noticed that there are fewer toll booths? Have you noticed you do not need to save your coins for the toll-fees? That is because there is now in place an electronic signal that takes a picture of your license plate. Do not worry though you will receive a bill in the mail requesting payment for toll-fees.  We have received them. 

3. Chatboxes: are the latest

Techcrunch.com talks about Sam Altman aiming to make ChatGPT(Generalized Pre-trained transformer) more personalized by tracking every aspect of a person’s life. It kind of feels like that is what AI has already been doing. They further added that ChatGPT’s conversational voice mode has been upgraded. Have you thought about that when you are searching with your remote on your television that you use your voice to give the commands to find the program that your desire? Do you talk to SIRI (Apple’s Virtual Assistant)? Do you find it easier or faster to just talk to SIRI as opposed to typing a search into your cellphone? How about when you use your voice? I have noticed when searching using my voice on the television you cannot talk to fast and you must enunciate very well.

4. Facial Recognition is Everywhere

Facebook, Instagram, Tik-Tok, and Google Photos use facial recognition. I know that some healthcare and retail apps use facial recognition as well. Facial recognition has become quite popular in many aspects of our lives.

5. Amazon Launches a new AI Foundation

Amazon has deployed its one millionth robot in its operations, a new generative AI foundation model will improve robot fleet travel efficiency by 10%, technology advances support faster delivery times and lower costs for customers, and over 700,000 employees have been up-skilled through training programs that prepare its workforce for the future. Aboutamazon.com talks about this. They further added that these robots work alongside employees, handling heavy lifting and repetitive tasks while creating new opportunities for our front-line operators to develop technical skills.

6. Why You Should Be Using AI Right Now

According to insidesales.com AI acts as an Assistant for Humans, helps with lead scoring, and is capable of Human-like Interactions, helps with Forecast Prediction. I like that it acts as an assistant for humans, but also hope everyone keeps in mind that it is not human regardless to how human-like it has become. You do not want to stop thinking for yourself. You do not want to just solely rely on AI(Artificial Intelligence)

7. AI Key Trends for 2025

Artificial intelligence is expected to add $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030, the future of AI includes innovations in machine learning and natural language procession, 55% of companies are already using AI, the global AI market is expected to grow by 38% in 2025, photo editing apps use AI to make pictures better, and music tools with AI create songs based on what you like. This is talked about at risenshine63.wordpress.com.

8. There are Ways to Distinguish AI-Generated Photos

Have you ever thought about whether the photos you look at online are real or AI-generated? According to AI overview there are ways to tell the difference. They suggest focusing on the anatomy for mistakes with proportions, textures may appear unnatural, there may be problems with lighting and shadowing, be sure to examine the backgound, there may be unnatural pixelation, verify the source, and you can consider using AI detection software.

9. AI helped a couple get pregnant

Yes CNN.com talks about a couple trying for 18 years to get pregnant and then AI made it happen using the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, Result, and Reflection) method which uses AI to help identify and recover hidden sperm in men who once thought they had no sperm at all. The sperm was left with researches at the fertility center and the semen sample was analyzed with the AI system. Three hidden sperms were found, recovered, and used to fertilize the wife’s eggs via IVF(in vitro fertilization) and she became the first successful pregnancy enabled by the STAR method. There are more and more ways that are being discovered for the use of AI.

I mentioned in a previous article that I have a robo-vacuum cleaner. I really like it. When an inexpensive robot is manufactured for the household, I might be tempted to purchase one, especially if the robot cleans like my rob-vacuum cleaner. Just think about it. Nearly any and everything is robotic and digital. The idea is growing faster and faster on a daily basis. What is new today will become old and part of the past by tomorrow. People might say they don’t want AI, but it is already on the televisions, in the hospitals, in the doctor’s offices, on our cellphones, in the restaurants, in our cars, and much much more. Ai is definitely here.

Possible AI Problems

Are you aware that AI has slowly been introduced to every facets of our lives? Are you aware that even though some believe AI to be a good thing, there is still a down side to this?

Did You Know?

***Good News***

1. My headphone

As I laid in bed one morning with my husband, I heard a voice saying, “I cannot find the phone?” I thought I was hearing things, but my husband on the other side of me said, “Is that your headphone?” I replied, “Yes.” Even though my cellphone was charging in another room that night I laid my headphone on the dresser next to me. I remember turning my headphone off. Apparently it had come back on on its own. This is very concerning to me. I have purchased another set of headphones that hang on your ear. It apparently turns itself on periodically without my permission. This is concerning to me as well.

2. A Few Challenges

Did you know that some of the challenges of AI (Artificial Intelligence) include, ethical issues, bias in Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence Integration, computing power, data privacy and security, legal issues with Artificial Intelligence, transparency, and limited knowledge of Artificial Intelligence? This is according to simplilearn.com.  Speaking of limited knowledge there are numerous Artificial Intelligent chat rooms that are being used to help the Artificial Intelligence in making better decisions. It is almost like teaching a baby to talk and understand. While doing a google search the Artificial Intelligence came out of nowhere and asked me if my daughter’s name was a thing or a person. When you are on hold on your telephone your choice options may be limited, because Artificial Intelligence is only programmed for a certain amount of interactions. If you ask the wrong question the reply might be, “I don’t understand.” Or it might ignore your question and state something else.

3. Artificial Intelligence and Your Voicemail

Do you have transcript with your voicemail? I have it. The other day my daughter left me a voicemail. Before I listened to it I read it. It started like this,

“Hey man.” “You so mean.” When I listened to it my daughter actually said, “Hey mom.” “This is, and then she said her name. If this was an emergency this could be time consuming. Or this could be misinterpreted by another.

4. Cybersecurity Threat

According to fortunessoftit.com,  Artificial Intelligence plays a crucial role in identifying and mitigating security risks.

5. Cyber Attack in Michigan Ascension Hospitals

Did you know that as of Wednesday, May 8, 2024 hackers broke into the patient health records and other systems at the Ascension Hospital chain according to bridgemi.com. They further added that on Thursday, patients arriving at Ascension Macomb-Oakland Hospital were rerouted under a diversion protocol. I also know first hand that they were rerouting patients from Ascension Hospital in Grand Blanc, Mi. They are further advising patients to have medications and symptoms written down. Artificial Intelligence in healthcare may be helpful, but there are also dangers involved.

I remember when doctors and hospitals were informed all of their patient information needed to be inputted on the computer. So if you have been to the doctor your information is in the computer. I notice that some doctors carry their Ipads around inputting information as they are seeing their patients.

In fact, it is always wise to have your medication and symptoms written down when going to the hospital and to be sure a close relative has a copy in the event you are unable to speak or you are not conscious.  

I recall a billing statement I received. I contacted my doctor which is a previous doctor I informed them it was incorrect. They were billing me for a procedure that did not occur. I was working on the date they stated. They insisted this was from their billing in another area and that they were right. So I call my insurance company and got them all on a 3-way conversation. My insurance company informed them they had the wrong billing code. This is what I went through to get this corrected unfortunately.

So even though Artificial Intelligence is here, there are still major concerns. If you have not seen the movie “Hacker.” You definitely need to see it. In this movie Hackers hacked into a woman’s data and changed all her information, “Stating she was on drugs and was a criminal.” The police busted her door down and she said none of that was true. The police replied, “That is not what is stated on the computer.” The Hackers then laughed about it thinking this was so funny, because of the fact they had the power to do this and ruin another’s life. That is one of the dangers.

6. Children and Artificial Intelligence

Because Artificial Intelligence is here, children have already been introduced to it.  According to elearningindustry.com this includes hands-on activities, attending workshops and camps, introducing them to coding, finding Artificial examples in everyday life, and encouraging creativity.

Also, many of the children’s books are now produced by Artificial Intelligence. What has happened to a human’s creativity of creating a book? What has or is happening to a child’s creativity?   There is no end to God’s creativity that has been given to you.  That creativity is infinite. How do you feel when creating something new? It can be a very good feeling. So when reading a book to yourself or to your children it is important to know the author of the book. That will tell you a lot. So Artificial intelligence is now influencing young children through books. A human being has the capacity to reason, but Artificial Intelligence is limited to it’s interactions right now. What does that say about the future?

Why Do Some Want to Erase History?

Have you ever thought about how important and beneficial History is to us? Why are there those that want to erase History? Why are there those that want to act as though certain people did not exist in History? Have you thought about it?

Think About This. . .

***Intentional**

1. Important People

There have been numerous people that have contributed to History. There have been numerous key players in History. Why would someone want to take that away from people? Is it racism? Is it Power? Could it be both and more?

2. Blacks were Considered Property

Did you know that there was a time when Blacks were considered property and not Citizens? Yes according to archives.gov Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857) Blacks were considered property and not citizens. That is appalling to hear, but it is a part of History that does not need to be erased. The 20^th century needs to know and remember how Black’s were treated. It was not moral nor was it right.

During slavery families were split apart as well as some slaves taken to their master’s house to perform sexual acts. Unfortunately sexual enslavement still exists on a larger and different scale, with the internet, drugs, and selling people to other countries. The word for it is Sex Trafficking. How many other people have received unfair treatment? Can you name a few?

Jews, Indians, Asians, Africans, and more are just a few.

3. Cursive Writing

I recall writing a note to my grandchildren when they were young. To my surprise they told me they did not understand my handwriting. It never had occurred to me that they did little to no writing in school, but worked on computers most of the time. Now they could master the computer very well. This is sad because there may come a time they need to sign a check even though doc-sign is now on the computer.

A 2021 study by OnePoll stated a staggering 70% of Americans struggle to read their colleague’s hand-writing and 45% claim they can’t even make out their own. This is talked about at nypost.com. They discovered that IQ (Intelligence quotient) scores have dropped sharply because of technology decreasing attention spans and negating the need to think deeply about subjects. I totally agree with that. Because of technology nearly everything is technology. Technology is everywhere, the hospitals, the schools, the churches, the stores, and more. Technology is everywhere. How can something such as technology be so detrimental when it is supposedly to be the best thing for humanity?

I was using my cellphone with a list to grocery shop. I discovered I was still missing items, so I started back writing a physical list on paper. When I write it down I seemingly remember it better. I found that to be true. Now I still clip coupons on my cellphone, because it automatically adds it on my grocery receipt as I check out. Those digital coupons are great. Even with the self-checkouts a human still needs to be available and observant to help, because computers can go-AWOL.

4. Benefits of History

Have you considered the benefits of History? History causes  you to look back, it causes you to look up, it causes you to look within, and it causes you to look ahead. Enjoyingthejourney.org. Discusses this.

Note: 

Even though there are those that are attempting to erase history, it is important for all people to tell their children about their history. It is important that your children tell their children and continue to do this with each generation. I remember showing my grandchildren a picture of me in middle school with two others. My other friend was showing the garter-belt holding her stockings up. My grandchildren had never seen a garter-belt and wanted to know what was that?

I never thought I would see a Black President during my lifetime, but I have. Now I am wondering when I will see a Woman President or even another Nationality as President of the United States. I know that it is coming.

5. Erasing Blackness

Have you ever heard any child say, “I never saw someone that looked like me on television.” Probably because it is true there was a time that those of different nationalities would say this. Now there are black films, Jewish films, Asian Films, and many more. According to Carolinejsumlin.com it has always been our society’s intention to erase Black history because it has always been our society’s intention to erase Blackness. She further adds that they are not stopping with book bans, but now they are taking the scraps of Black history that they barely taught and either erasing it all together or twisting the truth to rationalize enslavement and create a narrative that diminishes any fault for the generational harm caused to the Black and Indigenous communities. Are there those that are very threatened by blacks and Indigenous communities?

6. Erasing the Past to Control the Future

Can Erasing the past control the future? Zinnedproject.org., talks about how authoritarian regimes manipulate historical narratives to maintain power. He further adds that by doing this history is weaponized to advance political agendas. Are there those that are already in power so determined to erase the past in order to control the future? Are there those that want to control the future in order to increase their power? Are there those that want to control the future in order to further their own personal agenda?

7. Can History Benefit Your Future?

Can History Benefit your future? Yes it can. According to uopeople.edu history allows you to comprehend more of our world, society and other people, identity, present-day issues, and the process of change over time.

There Is Power in a Father’s Word

Father and Mother are important in a child’s life. Sometimes a single mother or father might be what a child has, possibly because of divorce or other circumstances. Have your given thought to the importance of a father’s words.

Something to Think About. . .

***Intentional**

1. Father Speak Life Over Your Children

Did you know that a father’s words can speak life over their children? Do you tell your children often that you love them and that you are proud of them? Do you shower your children with praises and tell them how important they are? Do you ask your children questions about their day and learn to listen to them and hear their hearts? Thinke.org/blog talks about this very thing? As an adult can you think back regarding your father? Did your father do any of these things?

I can recall as a very young child I would become very angry with friends. The strongest word I had when I was angry was, “I hate you.” I would tell my father I hated by friend when I was angry. My father’s response was very surprising to me. He always seemed to have a calm stern demeanor. He would respond to me and say, “Now Betty you do not mean that.” I sure thought I meant it at the time. His demeanor along with his words seemed to have a calming effect on me.

Thinke.org/blog further adds that father’s need to realize God have given them the high and holy responsibility of raising their children.

2. Kind Words Vs. Hurtful Words

Kinds words just kind of give you the warm fuzzies all over when you hear them and much of children’s confidence is hanging in the balance of a father’s words. Kind words can help build your child’s confidence. Whereas, hurtful words can destroy in an instant what took a life-time to build up. This is mentioned at goodmenproject.com.

3. Father’s Do You Know How to Connect with Your Daughters?

Did you know that some fathers do not know how to connect with their daughters? Could that be you? Have you considered that the father and daughter connection is one of the first connections a daughter has with a male and may determine her future interactions with other male figures in her life? A positive father-daughter relationship can foster a sense of security and self-worth in the daughter, leading to better mental health outcomes. Brparents.com talks about this. They further add that fathers need to be involved in the beginning of their children’s lives and by being there each step of the way they can nourish and protect their children.

4. A Few Powerful Phrases for Fathers to Tell Their Daughters

a. I love you

b. I appreciate you

c. I am proud of you

d. I love you unconditionally

e. I believe in you

f. You are thoughtful

5. Your Daughter Is Like a Plant

Father’s did you know that your daughter is like a plant that needs you to water her heart consistently and regularly? Fathers.com talks about daughters living in an environment with conditions that can threaten her ability to thrive. They further add that a daughter sometimes can be delicate and if a father looks away for too long, she may quickly curl in, wither, and wilt.

6. Father’s Words a Blessing

Did you know that a father’s words can be a gift and a blessing as well? According to scepterpublishers.org., the father confirms the child’s identity, assuring them that they have the right to exist and the right to be whoever they are. They further add that a fatherly blessing is of great importance, because the child who receives the blessing of her father feels loved as he is, has confidence in herself, can confront life with courage and audacity, and can take risks and make decisions.

7. Your Child’s Development

Did you know that a father’s words can influence the child’s development. God’s word clearly indicates that men-fathers- bring power to the parenting relationship. The woman brings life, and the father brings strength. There will be days when a mother brings strength to things, and there will be days when a man brings life. This is talked about at focusonthe family.com. I agree. Even though my father and mother never married as I think back I can see instances where my mother was really strong. I can also see instances even though my father was quiet he could be strong and he meant what he said. When he spoke I knew that he meant it. He could do so in a stearn voice without raising his voice. I would not question that either.

8. Father’s Do Not Provoke Your Children

Ephesians 6:4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. This is important because some fathers may tend to have little patience and even though they may be in the house they may be emotionally unavailable to their children. Father’s must be intentional and focused and careful of their words to their children. As a young woman looks at a young man she may be seeing does this young man have any of the character that she sees in her father. Think about it. When a child is first born, oft-time the first male face she may see is her father.

I remember when my one daughter's was born my baby did not cry. My husband picked her up and all I could here was. “She is so beautiful.” So I said, “ I want to see her, bring her to me.” I did not know at that time that all babies do not cry when born. As my husband talked to her she just looked and said nothing. She looked as if she understood everything he was saying to her. She was very alert and wide-eyed.

So men remember your words are important. Remember as long as you and your children are still living it is never too late to be intentional with your words to your children.

Do You Believe In Miracles?

Are you a believer? Do you believe in miracles? Not everyone does. Have you experienced a miracle? Have you expected a miracle in your life?

Just to See You Smile. . .

***Intentional***

Have there been instances in your life where the doctor nor scientists could explain about miraculous recoveries or happenings? Are you a living witness that miracles do happen?

What exactly is a miracle? En.wikipedia.org., describes a miracle as an event that is inexplicable by natural or scientific laws and accordingly gets attributed to some supernatural or preternatural cause.

1. My Testimony

Yes I believe in miracles. I recall when my niece was in college my daughter had a mini-fridge that she was not using. So we decided to give it to her to use as she was just starting college. As we drove on the highway I prepared to take the exit only to be surprised by hitting black ice. My card slid and I was headed off the road on to the next highway below. It happened really fast. There was a lot of snow on the embankment so instead of falling on the next highway below my car ran into all the snow in the embankment. Now some may say this was luck, but I say thank God it was a miracle. My children and my niece and a passerby actually were able to push my car out of the snow back on to the road. I was filled with gratitude and very thankful.

2. Changing Water to Wine

John 2:1-ll. They ran out of wine at the wedding. Jesus instructed the servants to fill the six stone water jars with water. Miraculously when taken to the banquet and tasted it was no longer water but wine. They emphasized that normally they bring out the best wine first and the cheaper wine later after the guest had had too much to drink. This did not  happen in this case. They had the good wine. Scientist may or may have not attempted to explain how this happened, but I believe this was a miracle that Jesus performed.

3. Lazarus Raised from the Dead

John 11:38-44. Lazarus had been dead 4 days. That is usually long enough for there to be a stench. Jesus commanded him to come forward. He was now alive after that. Now I was not there. There have been various theories that Lazarus had taken some type of herb that just gives the appearance of death. In modern medicine people have been placed in comas or have been declared brain dead and taken off ventilators, but I have never heard of someone other than Lazarus being dead for 4 days and brought back to life. So I believe Lazarus was an example of another miracle.

4. Parting of the Red Sea

Exodus 14. I am sure scientists are attempting to explain this miracle. Moses was able to lift up his rod and stretch his hand over the sea. Again miraculously the sea divided long enough for him to lead his people forward on dry land safely to their destination and then after they crossed the Red Sea Moses brought the water back down onto Pharaoh's army of chariots as they attempted to go after Moses and his people.

7. Jesus Calms the storm

According to Matthew 8:23-27, Mark 4:35-41, and Luke 8:22-25 when Jesus and his disciples were in the boat on the Sea of Galilee a storm erupted. Jesus was asleep, but was awakened by his frightened disciples. It states in the scripture that Jesus rebukes the wind and waves with his word, and the storm immediately subsides.

7. Mysterious Rescue

In March 2015 Utah rescuers heard an adult yelling “Help me!” from inside a car that had crashed. The rescuers found an 18-month-old Lily suspended above the freezing water in her car seat. Lilly’s mother had died in the crash. According to pureflix.com there is no way she could have been calling and Lilly was too young to talk. Lilly had been hanging upside down for more than 14 hours and would not have survived much long had it not been for the mysterious voice.

8. Jesus Heals Woman With An Issue of Blood

Can you imagine suffering with an issue of blood for 12 years? That is a long time. Mark 5:25-34. This particular woman had been to many physicians as her condition conditioned to get worse not better. She had faith in that if she touched the hem of Jesus’s robe she would be healed. According to the scripture when she touched the hem of his garment she was healed immediately. Can you imagine being healed from a chronic disease immediately? I would say that was no coincidence or no luck, but indeed a miracle. Now I am sure scientist may attempt to find a scientific reasoning for what happened, but there are so many miracles and incidences that science just cannot explain no matter how hard scientists may try. Miracles cannot always be explained, but when they occur everyone is usually happy, because seemingly they happen right on time. I know the miracle I experienced when driving was right on time, because for a split second I thought my car and everyone in it was going to land on the other highway instead of going into the snow embankment. I am so glad it turned out for the better. What is your testimony? Do you believe in miracles?
