The AI as a Useful Tool

So I decided to create an image with this AI app using my photo.  I gave the AI the concept and the actual words to use.  After it created it, I decided to edit the message by replacing one word with a new word. The AI followed my instructions, but changed the font colour of the new word. When I instructed the AI to change the font colour back, it suggested an app I could use to do it myself. It even provided a link to the app. What is this? I'm not having an AI telling me what to do! I stated that I wanted the font colour of the new word to be changed back to the original colour.  The AI followed my instructions. I then thought, maybe I was a bit harsh so I said, "Thank you." The AI said, "You're welcome" with a heart emoji. I thought, woah, I don't want that kind of relationship with you, thank you very much.  I should never have encouraged it in the first place. That's how it all starts. Next thing you know you're having a heart to heart conve...

Ms Rachel

While I was at work, I saw this baby in a buggy playing with a smartphone. I said to my colleague, "Wow, kids start really early with technology these days." "It's because of Ms Rachel," he said. "Never heard of her," I said. My colleague told me Ms Rachel is a children's TV entertainer for babies and toddlers and she's huge on social media. He said if I had young kids, nieces and nephews, I would know about her. I told him my nephews are in their twenties and thirties. My first ever technology was a calculator.  I didn't have one till I was about 16 years old. Now babies have iPads and smartphones. 😊 https://youtube.com/shorts/dD3NKG6ELzs?feature=shared

Pentecost Sunday

Happy Pentecost Sunday! We celebrate You, Holy Spirit, our Companion, Helper, Teacher and Spirit of Truth!  ❤️ Acts 2:1-4 NKJV [1] When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. [2] And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. [3] Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. [4] And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Image below created with Chatgpt 

Do You Believe God Can Do This?

I love this sermon by John Kilpatrick. He's one of my favourite pastors. I am really grateful God led me to him.  ❤️

Influencers

Social media is full of influencers who influence their followers to believe what they believe, and to act and think just like them. The only influencer I follow is Jesus.  I believe in Him, follow His teachings and even worship Him as my God.  Jesus is so influential, He has given all His followers His mind. Those who believe in Jesus and have accepted Him as their Lord and Saviour have Him  living inside of them; and His attributes are being expressed in and through them. Thank you, Jesus, for being the greatest influencer of all time. ❤️ ---- Relevant Bible verses: "And Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst."" John 6:35 "Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life."" John 8:12 "I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and...

On Being a Student

In my dream this morning, I was a student again. I didcovered I had two essays due in two days. I went looking for my course tutor to ask for an extension. My extenuating circumstances were I had been ill and hadn't attended lectures. I told him I  had already provided medical evidence. While I was waiting for the tutor to decide, I woke up from the dream. Thank God it wasn't real! I work with a lot of GenZs and they tell me they have used AI to help them write their essays.  In my student days, there was no such thing as the Internet. You had to do your own research and write it without any aids. When you finish writing the essay, you had to print it out and take it to the office, hand it in and make sure it was received before the deadline time or you'll be penalised. I wouldn't want to be a student again then or now. I prefer the teachings I am now receiving daily from the Holy Spirit about how to walk by faith in Christ and not by sight. ❤️ ----- Relevant Bible vers...
