I have been considering posting thisfor a while now but as it keeps nagging me I believe God is directingme to post it. I will try to keep it short but it does consist of twostories.
I want prayer for this man (I don'tknow him) that I see wandering around in my local city. He is alwaysdressed in the same old rags. He seems to be very sad, lost and Ibelieve homeless. He is older about 55-60. He walks around searchingfor cigarette butts on the ground. He is looking very poorly at themoment and I am worried about him. I can't do anything about it as Ilive too far away so prayer is the only thing I can do and I believethat will be enough. I believe this due to another experience in asimilar situation.
This had to do with a man around 40.He was very poor and I saw him whenever I went to town in the libraryusing the internet. He looked poor, jobless and hopeless. It was okayat the start but after awhile it got worse. One day I saw him, he wasterrible looking. He was gaunt and so death like. It shocked me so Icried out to God to save him. I didn't see him for over a year and Istarted to lose hope then one day there he was in the library! Hehad newer clothes on, looked fresh and clean and had an air of hopeabout him. I now only see him occasionally which I believe is due tohim now having a job.
I have sent up prayer for this man andwould like more prayer if you have time. Pray that he will find Jesusand be delivered from the situation he is in now. Thank you.
 
My advice (besides praying) is that you go up to him and talk to him. Invite him for a cup of coffee and something to eat or go get something to eat and drink and give it to him and give him a hug. He may need someone to talk to.. Ive learned that that helps a lot :)
 
interaction does wonders, I agree with Demi..
we all need someone

I shall stay mindful and pray.. Thank you for mentioning him.
 
PRAY IF I HAVE TIME! thats my job. ha.i pray for these two men you have found. may our God help and direct them.
 
Thank you for time and prayers. Will see if I can talk to him when I see him next but God will have to work in his life as I don't go to town very often. God will hopefully place someone in his life that can lead him to the right road.
