HOMELESSNESS AT CHRISTMAS TIMES

Let's remember those who do not have a home at Christmas.
Let's remember those who do not have a coat and a thick blanket to keep them warm.
Let's remember those who do not have any money to buy food or a hot drink to fill their bellies.
Let's remember those who do not have a hot shower to clean themselves;
Let's remember those who do not have any clothes to keep them warm.
Let's remember those who do not have a friend to encourage them to carry on.
Let's remember those who do not have a family to wish them "merry Christmas and happy new year".

Jesus can help the homeless through your generosity and your gratefulness.

Let's be grateful to God that we have a job, even if it is a part-time job,
Let's be grateful to God that we have a home, food on the table and a warm bed.
Let's be grateful to God that we have a family to support us and help us in times of needs;
Let's be grateful to God that we would be celebrating Christmas with our loved ones.
Most importantly, let's be grateful that we know Jesus, that he cares and loves us by giving us
all of those things above.

When you see a homeless person that is hungry, buy them some food, even if it is a sandwich or a pack of
crisps, that will give them a meal.
When you see a homeless person that is thirsty, buy them a drink who will quench their thirst or a hot drink to
keep them warm.

<< Matthew 25 >>
New American Standard Bible
35‘For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 37“Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38‘And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39‘When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40“The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’
41“Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’ 44“Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?’ 45“Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46“These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

I'm not a person that do all those things all the times, but, I can only try our best. It is a good feeling when we help those people in need because we give thanks to God for what he has given us. It is Christmas time and a good time to remember those who will die of cold and hunger because we turned our backs on them. We all have a sinful past so let us stop our selfishness and our silly judgement. Let us give to the homeless without judgement, in the name of Jesus. That is called doing the work of God.

God bless you all and Merry Christmas.

Bestselling Author of The Choice

ABOUT THE BOOK:

On the frontier, Adela McGirth’s life is simple, rugged, and exactly to her liking. Her greatest concern is whether to marry the settlement’s most eligible young officer. When a distant war among the Natives spills over into a nearby skirmish, life takes a perilous turn. Deep in enemy territory Adela must choose between the man she loves and a baby that has yet to be born; will she be strong enough to wait on God’s provision?

A peace-loving yet loyal Creek warrior, Totka is forced to align with the extremist Red Stick faction whose purpose is to eradicate the Whites from Creek soil. In the midst of battle, Totka is assigned to protect those he is expected to hate–and kill. Life was simpler before his enemy became a beautiful face with a quiet strength and dignity he cannot resist.

Having lived a life plagued with death and loss, Zachariah McGirth is a man on a mission – he’ll have his revenge or die trying. Blinded by grief, he can’t see his way clear of yet another tragedy. Why has God taken everything from him…or has He?

Their lives molded by the course of history, can these Wounded Spirits learn to rely on God’s grace during one of the bloodiest conflicts in the South?

LOOK WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE

I've got a blog where I post quite a few articles and poems.
And I have been blown away from the comment below:
You never know who is reading your blog:http://sanaedoja.wordpress.com/home-page-my-book-called-knowing-god/

Greetings!
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16, KJV).
It’s a great honor for me to contact you through this e-mail. I am Patras Masih from Pakistan. I am teacher in Girl’s High School. I have an experience of 16 years of teaching. I am eager to contact with you because it is the will of Jesus Christ. He likes that we will work together for Him and for His purpose and program.
Bible says, He said to them, “Go through the whole world and preach the Gospel to all mankind”. Mark 16:15. Now it is our duty to spread the message of Jesus Christ all over the world through sermons, articles which are written or in speeches. So that’s way we shall be play a vital role to fulfil the prophecy of Jesus Christ, “And this Good News about the kingdom will for the witness to all mankind; and then the end will come”. Mathew 24:14.
So we should ready to play our role, share our part by spreading the message of Jesus Christ every nation and every language. So that Jesus comes soon and we will be welcome Him.
Your articles and books will play major role when these will be translated in Urdu. Because there are not only English speaking people in the whole world. I have a command in English, Urdu, Punjabi. Languages. I would like to express my deepest desire to request you to translate your teachings and web site materiel, articles, tracts, gist and books in Urdu language. I pray that your consideration will have His mark over your decision.
By translating your written and audio material in Urdu language is a great opportunity to reach out people in Pakistan. This translated material will be a useful source for Christians as well as non Christians to understand the message of Gospel more clearly and easily.
And that’s way we will be able to do a job as John did. Who said, “Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his path straight”. Mathew 3:2. In your web there are so many wonderful, fantastic and spiritual articles and other related material.
In subcontinent and all over the world there is billion (World Total: 60,503,578) of Urdu speaking and 120 million of Punjabi speaking people. They didn’t know the English language very well therefore it is need of the time to spread the word of God all over the world. I have done Urdu translation for these websites:-

I belong to Islamic Republic of Pakistan. where it is difficult to have Radio and TV channel for preaching purposes. They would not allow us to do that here; the Satan has real strong hold over everything. In these days in Pakistan Islamic fundamentalism is on peak. This is very crucial time to lead the people to the right way to give them spiritual guidance about Jesus’ peace.
My father was a pastor. He has been doing this service since 1970 to 1985.
He was died. So I have a religious family background. . Give me your response. I am waiting your mail. God bless you.
In Jesus name,
Patras Masih

My book "KNOWING GOD"

Born in the south of France, the eldest of a family of five children, my origins are French and Moroccan. From the age of thirteen, my favourite hobby was writing French poems and songs.

I initially pursued a degree in business administration, but a few years later developed a strong desire to sing. Unfortunately, circumstances didn’t allow me to pursue this promising career.

In 1995, I came to the United Kingdom to improve my English. Struggling to make a living while in the UK, my life turned around when I believed and was baptized into Christ Jesus, confessing Him as my Lord and Saviour. I saw the power of God at work in my life.

It was this experience that motivated me to write this first book “Knowing God”, which I believe will help those who are seeking God to get a better understanding of the riches of the Kingdom of God.

“Knowing God” can be very challenging in the world we are living in today, especially with the circumstances of life shown to us by the media.


I have written this book with the clear intention and determination to help those who are looking for the truth to have a better understanding of God as the Bible intends.

There is nothing more beautiful and exciting than having a wonderful relationship with our loving God. His powerful Word promises us that if we seek Him, we will find Him.

“You will seek Me and find Me; when you seek Me with all your heart” (Jeremiah 29:13).


My personal experience with God motivated me to share with you what God has revealed to me about His character.


I will also share with you how you can develop a personal relationship with a wonderful Saviour; how your needs can be met and how you can live in righteousness through the power of the Word of God in a practical and conventional way.


I pray that this book will be a source of encouragement and enlightenment to those who are seeking God and want to know Him in a much deeper way.


May God bless you all forever and ever.
