I don't know anyone in my home town of Tampa who is homeless. But I know of some in New Jersey. The guy who gave driving lessons. He started to drink and lost his license and then his business, so I feed him once last year. Need to say a prayer for all those who have no place to live and little food to eat.

You KNOW a homeless person??? You PRAY that it never happens to you???
Wouldn't your God have you take the person in?
-
Not personally. I volunteer in a food pantry and see homeless folks come for help. Hopefully, my help is in turn helping them.

No, I think he would want us to be safe cause who knows whats on the minds of people now days just look at this forum. I also think he would want us to help anyway we can like a list of places where there is shelter or non profit programs who are in a position to provide a home for them.

I do not know anyone who is homeless but my two kids and I were very close to being homeless 11 years ago. It was a very scary feeling that
I don't wish on anyone. A kind lady let us live in a room in her house til I got back on my feet. I was able to move out in less than 2 months.
-
All right.
-
I don't know anyone currently who is homeless, but I pass by people all the time who are. I know a few people who have told stories of being briefly homeless and one who lived in his car for an extended period of time before he got help.

Homeless are everywhere now. Aggie49..in Essex County

My cousin God Bless him had a really good job but was let go. unfortunatly he choose the streets instead of finding shelter, he passed this year and he was only in his mid 50s :sad1:
-
I'm sorry, this may sound rude but did you really use "no" instead of "know"? I hope it was because there wasn't enough room... But nope, I don't personally know anybody who is homeless.
-
I don't know anyone personally, but I know there are many homeless people all around. I hope to become wealthy so I cvan really help homeless people.
-
i dont know anyone homeless. if i did i wouldnt know how i could let it go on if there was any way i could stop it..
-
Yes, I do actually. I was almost homeless a couple times growing up, but thankfully we never actually became homeless. It's a scary situation to be facing as a child and as an adult, but I can only imagine how much more scary it is to actually not have anywhere to live.
-
i don't personally know any homeless people.
i think if i did, i'd be trying to help them in one way
or another... or trying to find someone who could
help them if i couldn't.

I do not KNOW anyone personally who is. I have seen people in town or neighboring counties who I have heard are or you can just tell they are. I don't automatically feel sorry for these people. Some people are homeless because they choose to be. Sad but true. They interviewed a man on the news who was homeless and he said "I am homeless because I drink and I don't work" and coincidently he was drinking on camera. lol I also do not feel sorry for people who lose their home because they refuse to work or think certain jobs are beneath them. OR who can't pay their housepayment but still had money for a cell phone, the internet, and cigarettes. Just my opinion but having somewhere to live comes first. I will make my house payment first and let the extras go. Btw, I do not smoke. lol

An old high school friend of ours began drinking heavily, killed someone, went to prison and then was homeless after he was let out. He stayed with us for a little bit but we haven't heard from him in years :(

I was until June. Six months because my husband and I split up. I had to go from place to place and even slept outside once. It is not fun, especially when you have no food, but God took care of me, didn't let me go hungry. I pray for all the homeless people today, you know we don't think about it when we are sitting in our nice comfortable chair or couch in our living room, or laying on our bed, but there are tons of people out there with no where to lay their head but the ground, with tempertures to hot, and then when the rain comes they got to look for an overpass and freeze, Please pray for all homeless people to have a place to stay. We have homeless shelters here, but I heard aweful stories of bedbugs and such.

Yes....
