Humble Servant of All
As I sit here this morning watching the sun rise (sun is not even out because it's raining). Nonetheless I am sitting in the deer blind hoping for a deer to come close enough to shoot. I do not shoot for sport but to put meat on the table. As I sit here I keep thinking about tomorrow being Thanksgiving. I am thinking about the people that my settlements would help to have turkey on the table and how that will not happen because my settlements have not been granted.
I am thankful for the roof over my head and what food we get. I am thankful that 3 of my 4 children speak to me. I am thankful that my husband is trying to teach me to hunt to help put food on the table. But I don't understand God not reaching down to the one who needs to say yes Grant the settlements, there are too many people who will benefit from these. Homeless will have a roof over their heads, light bills will be paid so folks will have water and electricity to attend their needs, some will acquire transportation so they can get a job, most will receive clothing to stay warm for the winter, most will buy food or needed medication.
So why does God not want this? Why does he not want those who are in need to be helped. These settlements are set up for that. I know he wants us to help with what we already have and I do the best I can considering we have to have help ourselves to find food to get us through the month. But I truly Don't understand why God doesn't want this to happen!!!
I have been homeless twice. So I know on a personal level what this would mean to the homeless and those who aren't able to get work or because of Obamacare like my husband whose hours gave been cut to nothing but still can't get help. I want to help these people. It is on my heart so heavy. But without these resources I can't. My husband and I have taken in 3 different families who were homeless. Into our 900 Sq ft home with me, my husband, one of my son's, our daughters who came on the weekends and my mother. One family consisted of a mother and 3 teenagers. Somehow we made it work.it was rough considering we were struggling ourselves. So I know.
