Not ALL homeless people are Criminals, drug addicts, or who Want to live like that. There are some homeless people who have genuinely fallen upon Hard times. Law Abiding, God-fearing, Christ Loving People who came across hard times. God does not promise an Easy go of it, tribulation will come,,,,Even to God-fearing Christians!

Guest Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Lets not paint a false picture with such a broad stroke. Not ALL homeless people are Criminals, drug addicts, or who Want to live like that. There are some homeless people who have genuinely fallen upon Hard times. Law Abiding, God-fearing, Christ Loving People who came across hard times. God does not promise an Easy go of it, tribulation will come,,,,Even to God-fearing Christians! Very true. Speaking as a drug addict Jesus cleaned up, many homeless are mentally ill and are sufficiently out of it that they can't maintain an apartment (here in my area, anyway.) There's nowhere to put them, so they wander the streets. Some are addicts far enough down that dead end road that all they care about anymore is the next high. They are sometimes called "zombies" out on the street. They don't eat brains, but they will steal anything from you they can for another "hit." The name is shorthand for "stay clear." Others on the street are there because they have been so beaten down by hard times, bad decisions, or the system that's suppose "help" but only causes more bondage that they have just given up. There are those who are there because they've fallen on hard times and will gladly accept a hand up, clean up, get a job, and go on with life. I've met only 2 folks who told me they were happy on street and chose to stay there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few weeks ago I watched a documentary on homeless people living in a tent city. I was impressed by the amount of faith in God that these people have. Here they are living in a tent and they have nothing. But they keep their faith in God believing that he will help them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
