ma'am, do you have any change to help me....
sir, i hate to bother you....
*cardboard sign*...not drunk, just hungry
90,000
.....I am sure you have been approached by one of "them", undoubtedly. Do you stop? do you lend a helping hand? OR do you look the other way? Oh, by no means am I perfect. I openly admit that I am guilty, guilty of NOT being the hands and feet of Jesus. Am I proud of it? no way. And, to think it is not some difficult task put before me. Oh yes, the stereotypical thoughts have gone through my head...they just want to get money for beer, drugs, etc (you fill in the blank); but, what about the father who lost his job? the single mommy who left a horrendous situation to protect her children?
What if...
.......90,000
What if....
........ONE lead to many helping? didn't Jesus spend His time with the least of these?
My mind is just swirling with thoughts tonight about the so many who are homeless. Do I have a lot? more than I really need, yes. Do I have to wonder where my food is going to come from? no. I sat down tonight and watched this movie
.....it was really intense for me. My heart broke when I saw the sadness, the pit of despair living conditions, etc. And, I say to myself, how dare you...in regards oh I would love to have a bigger house; a bigger car....what about contentment? My Jesus was homeless, and yet He loved, and still loves, everyone and was willing to do anything for anybody.
Perhaps watching this movie tonight will help be an encouragement to me to be the hands and feet of Jesus.....
90,000(# of homeless in the Greater Los Angeles Area, according to the movie)
....I desire to do what I can, whether it is for someone homeless, or someone just going through a difficult time.
I highly recommend watching the above movie (click on the hyperlink)...it sure moved my heart!
