homelessness

so the same guy i fed like a month ago was outside of jamba just now...

sam and i were at Ross and then stopped to split a jamba.

he asked for food so we took him into quiznos.

he's so wonderful... "is a meatball ok?"  (as if i'm going to be liek... eeehhhhhhhh just not THAT one... honestly... meatball sub sounds AMAZZZZZing right now)

i loved that the lady working there asks... what size? and he just stares at me... and i get to say LARGE.

that just put a huge grin on my heart.

who orders that size??  nobody.

its outlandish...

but honestly... just the idea of seating that guy down and giving him a feast sounds wonderful.

but sam said something while we were leaving that really convicted me.

i mentioned how i can give money... but i'm not really good at conversing with them... i dont think of the right things to say... i'm just not good at that in general.

and she said that in her anthropology class they talked about how a lot of those people ... as much as they want food... they need companionship and conversation.

i need the Lord to help me converse with people.

whether it be the jr highers i counsel.

or a homeless man....

certainly i bought him a 6 dollar meal... big woop.

but i didn't even think to sit down with him while he ate it.

it makes me wonder how many guestmeals people have that go unused every semester.

what if we started bringing in homeless people?

i know that they've thrown out a guy who was in the library before...

but if i honestly said... THIS IS MY GUEST... would they dare do anything to them?

and just imagine watching someone who hasn't eaten in a while in the CAF.

dangggg the caf would feel loved.
