Decisions

History may have been altered.

The Remedy

A mistake had been made.

 - Romans 8:2 (NKJV)  

The Big Difference

Others didn’t realize there was a problem.

 - James 5:20 (NKJV)

Don’t Give Up

Let God have the final say.
 
 “Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any, came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.”

That’s what was going on.
 
 "If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole.”

He wanted the people to know.
 
 “He said to her, ‘Daughter, be of good cheer; your faith has made you well. Go in peace.’”
 -  Luke 8:48 (NKJV)

She Was Convinced

There was no magic.
 
 “If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole.”
 - Matthew 9:21 (KJV)

Your First Thought

Don’t let faith in God be an afterthought.

700 of them were gold!
