helping the homeless

  • FOR A LONG TIME NOW I WANTED TO HELP THE HOMELESS,IT IS SO SAD TO SEE THESE PEOPLE, THAT HAVE WORKED SO HARD ALL THRIE LIVES, AN IN ONE SWIFT MOMENT IT IS ALL GONE. HAVE ANY OF YOU BEEN HOMELESS, WELL I HAVE AND IT IS THE HARDEST THING THAT ANY ONE CAN GO THROUGH.MOST OF THE TIME YOUR FAMILY WON'T HELP YOU OUT, THEY DON'T WWANT TO EVEN KNOW THAT THEIR LOVE ONE IS HOMELESS.. I WAS AY A CHURCH ONE DAY  THERE WERE A LOT OF HOMELESS PEOPLE THERE, BECAUSE THE CHURCH TOOK REAL GOOD CRE OF US AS MUCH AS THEY COULD, BUT ANYWAY WE WERE ALL ABOUT TO LEAVE THE CHURCH WHEN SOEONE ASKED THIS PERSON, WHERE HER BROTHER WAS. THEY SAID THEY HAD NOT SEEN HIM IN A LONG TIME, THE WOMAN SAID HE HAD MOVED TO ANOTHER STATE ON A JOB, THAT HE WOULD NOT BE BACK. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT HE BROTHER IS AT ANOTHER CHURCH,BECAUSE HIS SISTER ASKED HIM TO, SO PEOPLE WOULD NOT SEE HIM AS A HOMELESS PERSON. WHEN I LEFT THE CHURCH I WAS CRYING NOT FOR ME OR THE WOMAN BUT FOR HER BROTHER. THAT HE DID WHAT SHE ASKED HIM TO DO AND SHE DID NOT WANT ANY PART OF HIM BECAUSE HE WAS HOMLESS, AND SHE WOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIM. IT IS OR DUTY AS GOD HELPERS TO DO JUST THAT HELP PEOPLE,THAT REALY NEED HELP. SO WHEN YOU SEE SOMEONE ON THE STREET JUST DON'T PASS THEM BY  AND THINK THERE GOES ANOTHER DRUNK OR DRUG ABUSER. THINK OF THEM AS GOD'S CHILDREN WE COULD BE IN THAT SPOT SOMEDAY,AND YOU WOULD WANT TO HAVE SOMEONE TO HELP YOU OUT. THANK YOU FOR READING THIS,I HOPE YOU WILL HELP IF YOU CAN. GOD BLESS.
