and yes the hand was cured. the man had extreme athritis in his right hand. his fingers were completely disformed and bent and crooked. to tell the truth it wa pretty gross. his hand now is no different then mine. well its got wrinkles and what not but you get the point.

another time i was reading a book called learn how to pray on my front porch. i was reading the Lords prayer and a snake came on the porch. my room is in the front of the house and the snake was trying to get in my windows. he tried a few times and couldnt so slithered off. i believe God spoke to me cuz i had been praying that God would let me know what i needed to do to get a deeper relationship with Him, He told me that i need to stay in His word and pray...thats how i took it. maybe it was just a coincidence?

another time i was really feeling like God wanted me to preach a sermon to the youth group, i was scared cuz i was gonna give my testimony about where i came from ( partying, drinking, drugs, sex, ect...) and i had a good reputation in the church and didnt want to ruin it. i struggled with this for a long time. finally one night before i started reading my bible i prayed that God would let me know if this was something i should do and to give me an answer. i decided to just open up the bible anywhere and have God answer me. i opened it and random and swear on everything that i hold dear that this is the first verse i read ( i remember to this day like it just happened) "Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life." acts 5:20. still more examples
