Help...........Homeless.....Empty

The city of Honolulu has many homeless people pushing their belongings around in shopping carts and such.... They're mild mannered and harmless mostly. Stinky and dirty to be quite honest. Many seem to be a bit daft or worse... I've been moved by those who I've seen digging for food in trash. Today, I walked home instead of sitting on a bus--why not exercise? A wheel chair loaded on all the handles with bags and belongings which extended about 4 feet across with a little dirty woman approached me. I looked directly at her for some reason. Her dirty face showed extreme pain as she tried to get those wheels to move. I was punched in the gut. Her physical pain was showing all over her face. She was helpless and had no help.

I have no money and I'm not a politician. At this point, I will pray for her that something or someone can help her. It made me think hard and deep.

To be quite open.....the pain she shared from the physical expression reminded me of the pain I sometimes feel inside of my heart and soul.  How can I keep moving and lugging this stuff with me?  But, I do have a strong network of dear friends and family who push and move me along.  And, I have a supernatural God who will not leave me.

But the lost and hurting?  Literally homeless or emotionally bankrupt and empty?  Society, family, friends?? What are we doing? Children starving and abused. Adults are like trash on streets. We can start with each of us being responsible for those around us in need. I can make a difference when someone around me is hurting in any way. Let me make certain that I do what I can to keep another human from a harmful fate or end.

I feel helpless and idea-less..................... God help the homeless. But, he needs a human to do the helping..............
