in response to montedreams... Amen!!! I agree. I just came across this site today, after looking for resources for the homeless, low-income housing, etc. At first I was so thankful, feeling God had answered a prayer. Then as I'm reading, I noticed that some people leaving comments are really mean & hateful. How dare they be so un-caring to someone that is already feeling down & totally hopeless. What's the point? That doesn't help them. I'm sure they have already had a huge dose of tough love. They are here in search of HELP....not a chewing out by some smart mouth that doesn't care about what they are going through. If u can't say something nice, don't say anything. I don't understand people who enjoy being disrespectful to someone that has done nothing to deserve it. My heart just sings when I get the chance to help someone in need. I mean, what else could be more rewarding. I don't have much to work with myself right now, but there are lots of ways to be a blessing to someone other than with money. I was shocked to see so many people are in the same situation as I am, if not worse. I'm not as young as most of the ones I've read about here, but I do have a child that is 11 yrs. old. My husband lost his job in Sept. We don't have any transportation, & we live in a very small town that has next to no job opportunities. Similar story.....we got behind on our rent & have now been evicted. We don't have anyone that can help us. Our church has helped us out alot already. And we don't have a clue where we are going to go. We live in Texas. I have been looking online for some kind of resources for housing, but haven't found anything. What bothers me about it is my son having to suffer. My husband & I could just tough it out, pitch a tent somewhere, sleep in our car(if we had one). We would just have to make due, but I can't put my son in that position. My 22 yr. old son lives 300 miles away & is going to TRY to bring me an older truck he's not using, but I don't even have any gas money to help him with. And unless I can find him a ride back, he won't even be able to bring it. I didn't mean to post this much info. but this is the only site I've found where you can tell your story. And it may possibly reach someone that might could help or have info that would be helpful. Well thank you, & my prayers are with you all.
