Sam and I went to downtown Duluth, GA last night because that was the location of the nearest place to make a change to his cell phone service. While we were there, a lady (and I use the term loosely ) came in.
Life has happened to her. She can not look back to how she got where she is. It hurts too much. She only looks forward to the next drink, the next fix. Something to make the pain go away. Where will she get the money, what can she do? Her life is a mess. The cruel rewards of her lifestyle display their ugly result on her mottled skin. Like her feet, her soul is bare. And yet, Jesus loves her. Jesus died for her. If she could only see it. Her life could change.
How can I be the hands and feet of Jesus to her? A burger and a ride home seems so inadequate.

I periodically work with the homeless. I find “Hi, I’m Rob” opens so many doors. From there, follow the path God lays out for you.
Rob,
Thanks for the comment and the advice. Sounds like a simple way to open a door for the Lord to work.
