***** A recent experience: A Homeless cell-mate of mine, Peter, I'll call him, mid 50's clean off probation since 2008, has EVERY DAY placed numerious applicaitons for work (sh*t jobs mopping floors, anything) for 8 months now. Breaks my heart. I've watched him. Two churches come to the shelter every weekend. I told a man in each of Peter's need for work. One said, "Tell him about Jesus." The other one said, "Tell him to see me and I'll see what I can do." In effect, one said 'Tell him about Jesus,' the other said, in effect, 'Bring him to me, I'll SHOW him about Jesus.' Which one is the man of God? (Subsequently the 2nd man began producing 'real' opportunities for Peter, giving Peter his phone number (he is a mid level computer executive), staying in regular phone contact TO Peter. Peters begins his new job at a nursing home next week.)
