I remember the words of one homeless man when I woke him up and I said, "What were you dreaming about?" He said, "Taking a shower, being somewhere else, eating food." These words broke my heart as he could not even find provision for his basic needs. Then he said, “Why do I have to be like this now?” I didn’t have an answer to his question. I can still hear his words echoing in my mind.

I hope that somehow my words will encourage you to prepare to share with the homeless. All this man possessed was his clothes gathered around him on the ground and a piece of cardboard for a bed.
This man and others in need like him are why we are in the streets and motivating churches to do the same. While I see homeless people everywhere, I see churches on every corner. I continue in prayer even now in hopes to know how to motivate more churches to reach out. It hurts when I think about all the needs there are in the streets and the mission assigned to us as Christians.
