Maybe God has burdened your heart with this as well and has given you an idea to help (let me know what you have.). That reason may be to call everyone that reads this to action. I know God has burdened my heart for a reason. where is this love? Jesus said, in Matthew 25:34-40 ( NKJV), 34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food I was thirsty and you gave Me drink I was a stranger and you took Me in 36 I was naked and you clothed Me I was sick and you visited Me I was in prison and you came to Me.’ģ7 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ Jesus Commanded us to "Love our neighbors as we love ourselves".
Those in the same situation in Boone are basically out there to Die! How difficult would it be to turn people away on a night the reached single digit temperatures? In fact every time folks are picked to fill the shelter, others are inadvertently picked to face death. I guess it just sunk in, that in Boone the homeless don't have the programs folks in the Piedmont have and I know the struggles they have. Boone has already had several snows this year and severely cold temperatures. The cold wind hunts you down and haunts you.there is no escape. At lunchtime that day when it was nice and toasty in the 50's in Charlotte, Boone was topping out at 28! Anyone that has been to Boone in the winter also knows about the unforgiving winds they have. Have you ever experienced the weather in Boone during the winter? As I read the articles I noticed the weather advertisement on the page. Every night the shelter has to turn people away. The shelter will allow those that have absolutely no place to go stay first, then those who live in cars, and then those that can find a place with someone. Many nights this shelter has to break the law to help people live.
Ringtone just an old fashion love song code#
They talked about how they have 20 beds and a fire code of 17.
They interviewed this guy who is/was a heating and air worker that is now homeless. Another, the one that pulled so hard, was about a Homeless Shelter in Boone. One was about a Food Pantry in the High Country of NC that has run OUT of food. My heart was burdened to the point I almost came to tears.in the office! In fact there were a few articles in that paper about the tough times we've all been having.
I was reading an article from the Mountain Times this week and I really really had my heart burdened.
