Homeless

So...today is the start of our homeless experience. We started at around 6 p.m. after our "last dinner". While I'm only 2 hours into it, it has been interesting and thought provoking. It was weird to sit on the steps of the chapel to do my homework, because I had nowhere else to go. It started to get cold and all I wanted to do was run inside and get warm. (and yes I know I am inside doing this..shut up) It was weird to think about the fact that I cant go to my fridge and get something to drink or eat. I have nothing but my books, a Bible, and a blanket. Its hard to concentrate on anything because there are so many thoughts flooding my head. I don't fully know what I am thinking or feeling right now, so I will wait till tomorrow when I have experienced a little more. Keep us in your prayers, there are around 20-25 people doing this. More importantly, keep the real poor, downtrodden, and social outcasts in your prayer. They need it the most and those are the people God was drawn to. That isn't a coincidence. More to come tomorrow...

A wretched sinner saved by grace,
