Helping Society’s Castaways
There is a group of men that hang around an abandoned car wash in town and drink beer.
William often stops to offer them snacks and the Pocket Testament Gospels.
Most of these men are homeless. They are society’s castaways.
William shared how God arranged a Divine appointment one morning with a 40-year-old semi- homeless man. He has a missing leg and is confined to a wheelchair. He was drinking beer, hadn’t bathed in so long that he smelled really bad, had lost his SSI benefits a few years back and now has no income, medical care or phone. He is in serious need of alcohol detox and to survive, he panhandles with a sign by the side of the road. William continued,
This poor man waved me down.
The wheel on his dilapidated wheelchair was about to fall off
and he was wondering if I could help him.
I assisted and found a discarded wheelchair that had both wheels operational.
Feeling deeply that no one should have to live like this, William went the extra mile and set up a phone interview for the man at the local Social Security office to reapply for benefits.
Offering the man hope, William gave him a Pocket Testament Gospel.
William is faithful to actively share the pocket Gospels with those who have been castaway in his community. There are so many stories like this one and most are ashamed of their circumstances. William knows in his heart that God’s Word will accomplish the task according to HIS will and purpose for each person.
