Okay, I'm game with this 'time' thing...
The word 'chance' is in the bible and things do happen by chance. There are just a couple examples in the bible of things happening by chance. I'm not talking about a 'chance of wheat', but the other meaning in case you want to do a search for it in the Strong's Concordance.
When someone wins the jackpot, it's by chance that they won. It wasn't their turn to win. God didn't hand it to them. They weren't selected from some cosmic raffle to win the jackpot here on earth. It happened totally by chance.
It's kind of like stepping in dog poop. It's by chance or you could call it an accident I suppose.
Chance has no recognition of time. They are practically opposites.
Time is precise and predictable, whereas chance is random and unpredictable.
We all have bias' to some degree when it comes to picking our numbers. It's hard to not have them.
If we see a number too many times, we tend to think it has run it's course and couldn't possibly show one more time, but dang if it doesn't.
Any kind of bias we apply to the numbers tends to prove us wrong on the next draw.

So how do we adjust our thinking? Maybe we could stop saying, "I like this number", OR "I like that number," and just say "these are just numbers based on absolutely nothing!"
I think this coming week when I play Powerball, I'll take all 55 numbers and put them into play one time each. That would be 11 lines, and then just numerically list 11 bonus ball numbers next to them. I'll sort them based on nothing and see what comes my way. I don't believe I can purposely align numbers to match what will happen by chance, so if something good comes from it, it will be by chance on my part.
