Homeless but NOT Humble / 2018 Summer Mission Trip

Day 96 



We pulled into our next town in Minnesota and a man had a guitar and was on the corner! We walked over with some food, a gospel of John and our gospel card.
He told me he was a believer but by his language and theology ...he was lacking greatly. I shared the biblical gospel and how God calls us to repent then leave sin if we are His and born again. That includes working to provide for ourselves vs begging... when we can indeed work. He told me he has his own beliefs and he works sometimes but he boasted that he loves this life and gave up a big paying job to be a drifter. So I gave him my phone number in case he wants to get off the street and get a job...we will help him.
We parted....he thanked us and later I saw him talking to a police officer who told him he had to move along and the drifter was mad! As we left the place a storm was coming in and I saw him walking down the road and he looked at me and then gave me several hand gestures of the angry kind. I guess he expected a ride but I only have a 2 seater work van so that was not possible. I was surprised he got angry...
It seems to me men who choose that life of little work..begging and it's freedom, should not expect to get rides and stay dry as it comes with that life they have chosen.
You do reap what you sow amen? In all the years of stopping and offering to assist homeless off and into a new life...they never call!
We pray he repents and seeks God's truth for his life to eternal life!
