ARIZONA GROUP KEEP HOMELESS WARM: Homeless and solutions

» Beawriter - Homeless and solutions

The Bible tells us if we have two coats and our brother has none, to give him one of ours. It doesn't say put him to work first. I realize the problem of the homeless is multifaceted but I think first we have to see the welfare of those who are homeless. Offering them a warm sleeping bag made by loving hands is certainly a wonderful charity.However, this group does even more. They invite the homeless in for a meal and they also offer counseling. The truth is not all homeless people want to have a home. Another truth is that NOT all homeless are not working.
I know there are homeless people who fall into the category of the working poor. They can't afford the cost of an apartment, electricity and heat. These people actually pay a portion of their salary to the shelter in order to stay there during the winter months. In the milder weather they might take up residence at a camp ground.
Let's not judge others, lest we be judged.
