Final homeless count tally released

First, the definition of "homeless" is stretched to include 17 yr old Suzy & her fatherless child living with Aunt Becky in a spare bedroom.
That is NOT homeless by any reasonable standard.
It also included people living in motels. OK, I wouldn't want to live in one, but it is a home equal to the apartments I lived in when I first moved out on my own.
Notice that the survey did not ask how long they have lived in Humboldt County ? Or why did they move to Humboldt County ?

Have a little compassion and think outside your little wooden boxes, life isn't divvied out fairly and therefore we all need to try for one second to imagine if we were in someone else's shoes before we start judging them.
Love will save this world and you don't have to be a hippy to open your heart to the world around you.
Try it, solutions come much easier when you soften your gaze...

Reading Revelation in our Bible, I noticed how there have been an ongoing of various Babylons throughout time. And each time the reason for the fall of each Babylon was the abuse of the provided abundances, by not sharing with the poor and needy there among them. As God does not pour out his favor and blessings to be kept by some and not shared with all there.
Then, finally a nation, another Babylon, would get this done! However, later, even that Babylon would fall for another reason.
It now appears as though this United States Of America is very close to achieving that task.
And, with a little Truth sharing abilities may be encouraged to get it done.
Pray for this nation to remain obedient in God's eyes, that he may continue pouring his favor and blessings here! As this Favor and Blessings are so very obvious here with the abundances of fresh water and many other things provided.
Thank God!

Hitler really did refer to Jews as vermin and rats. When you choose to use Hitler's mental and emotional template, you are squandering the gifts that God gave you for empathy and for helping others make progress. Remember, Jesus said his two most important rules for mankind were to Love God and to Love your Neighbor as you love yourself. By "neighbor" we feel certain He meant other people.
