In my city we have a shelter - a really nice one. Already it has proved to be insufficient for the needs of the population. I am so touched by the people i see sleeping in doorways, on sidewalks, begging in markets and outside of crowded venues. I do take clothing, household items and food to the Self Help Foodbank here in town. I believe in what they are doing. I got to tour their operations. . so many wonderful programs for those who need them, not hand outs, but help ups. <BR/><BR/>I love that you are in Vancouver once more, living among those who need you - serving God and humanity. You have a lovely spirit, Dee. xoxokathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05786278167953612058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927999.post-19251643359549827842008-11-23T12:39:00.000-05:002008-11-23T12:39:00.000-05:00Thanks for remembering the poor. I appreciate that...Thanks for remembering the poor. I appreciate that in you- but more importantly, Jesus does. <BR/>Like you, I don't tend to hand out money (especially in my neighbourhood!!!), but I've got a feeling yours was used for the better good. I don't know how far from home you were, but my heart screams to do more - which always means more time and energy. Got a sleeping bag? Take it to the bridge, maybe! Or even better...check and see if there really are any shelters in the area . Again, my heart just aches for this stuff. That and I watch Boy in the striped Pajamas last night and injustice is pressing on my heart. <BR/>"Well done good and faithful servant" ;)Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09565136847566062186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11927999.post-32163927787477043512008-11-21T16:48:00.000-05:002008-11-21T16:48:00.000-05:00My heart resignates with your words...I don't unde...My heart resignates with your words...<BR/><BR/>I don't understand how so many people are afraid that they may have to downsize their cell phone plan or drop their satellite tv when there are people starving on the streets.<BR/><BR/>I don't understand how people willingly overlook bruises and sad eyes because "they have their own issues". Why people judge so ruthlessly, then don't understand why their families are falling apart.<BR/><BR/>I CAN'T understand why people overlook injustices- in our own country and over seas- because it's not their problem.<BR/><BR/>People are part of the problem...<BR/><BR/> None of us have control over the situations of our lives... but we can control how we respond.Gina:https://www.blogger.com/profile/18171850652930185300noreply@blogger.com
