Where does love lay?

"How Many Homeless in your Town? Do you Care?"
2 Corinthians 8:8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.
Where does love lay? It is deep in the heart of God for the trouble soul who has no help. For the one on the street who is facing the sting of death. Daily the lives pale away in infinite rhythm as the burial of those who pass on, do so with not even a nod of another human. Left alone, existing in a world of human reminders, yet having no help! Where is love he asks? If there is a God, why is this happening to me? Yet in the towers of the rich, the bottle of champagne is opened once again as the goals of success are met. Toasting to fame and fortune, far away from those below on the streets, who struggle to pass just one day in contentment. Joy is a word and peace is what you would like. A piece of meat, a piece of bread, a nibble of a crusty hamburger, left on the pits of garbage. Anything would suffice today, for you don’t know if tomorrow will come. So they ask, if there is a God, and if he is coming, let him come. For anything would be better than this, even the judgment of God. For if he does exist, his judgment is surely more fair than life has been to me on these streets.
1 John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

Where does love pass? Daily before tens of thousands upon the streets and dumping grounds of the worlds cities. Gatherings for humans to live, work, play, get rich, and then pass the time away in bliss; this is the place where many see the lowly and despised. These who cannot look up, nor look in the eye of the stranger. Whose action is to beg once here, then there, hoping for a crumb to live one more hour, one more day? Yet in the fast food places, in the high schools, and corridors of American shopping malls, we get fat. We eat, rejoice, play, and find ourselves gorged on the food of the richest nation on earth, while in the streets, the drugged, the abused, the prostitutes, the alcoholics, and depressed, along with other social outcasts gather to live another day.
Why should we care you ask? What is it to me that they live or die? Where is the government? Why don’t the churches do more? Is it my fault these people who are lazy do nothings find no place to lay their head? What is it to me that they should walk in such trouble day by day! How sad today in the richest nation on earth, that we have so many on the streets, homeless, in prisons, in state mental hospitals, and cannot find help.
For many, this day and age is one of advancement. It is technology at its finest, when time and space seem to shrink as we see the world in a microcosm. It is this new moment and era which will bring in the Global agenda to meet the ‘son of perdition’, also known as the beast of Revelation. A time when the number of men will be incalculable and used to furnish the man of sin with the tools to enslave an already lust filled society of selfish people bent on their own desires. It is into this that the Light and the Salt must come.
The Lord came and brought to us a new standard. One where the law passed on by Moses was fulfilled in Yeshua Ha Massiach [Jesus Christ]. Love came, from the Father, revealed in the only begotten Son of God, given to the Apostles, transferred to the church at Pentecost, and now we are the ‘salt of the earth’ and the ‘light’ which is to shine and bring hope to all men everywhere. It is through this ‘Salt and Light’, motivated by our Love, which we found in Christ, who gave of himself for our sins, that we came to know what Love is. For the Father Loved us so much he sent his son. It was for our cause, our sin, our salvation, and the Lord saw to it we were rescued.
Matthew 5:13 ¶Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
It is through this love that we are saved. For by Grace motivated by Love which out of that love Gods mercy poured forth. It is that love flowing through us that we find the fulfillment of the law. This love is what the Father bestowed upon his children that we would walk as he walked, in love. This love is demonstrated in unfeigned [sincere, real, genuine] love for the brethren and for all men. It is beyond selfish desire and moves into the realm of the supernatural of the LORD God. For when men and women, who love God and follow him, truly love as God would have them do, then the gates of hell will not prevail nor will the supernatural doors of deliverance be able to stay shut. For with God all things are possible, and with his Love, this is assured.
1 John 3:1 ¶Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1 Peter 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
Galatians 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
So as I write this today I speak to you to love. The time has come to stop biting and devouring one another, especially those within God’s kingdom. Those who are his son’s and daughter’s need to repent of such foolishness and strive to enter in at the gate of Love. Love for the brethren and for your neighbor. Love for the poor and oppressed. Love for the stranger and the widow. Love for the sinner and the saint, hatred of sin, yes, but Love for those bound in darkness.
As I write to you today I also write of another one whom I know. This is a person who has known victory, home, hearth, and love. Yet today has no money. This is one who is so hungry that he ‘sometimes eats grasshoppers’. He also is of ill health, losing weight, and needs help. He says "praise the Lord for insects." They were able to sustain his life for another day. I cannot contact him except for an occasional text message he somehow finds a way to get to me. He has no resources, lost his home, and livelihood, yet in all this he is trying to survive. He lives in America, is homeless for all intents and purposes, and is hungry and needing help.
In this message he also writes that ‘things could be worse’, surly God is ‘going to give me a job’ he says. Further the wisdom of one who has found such suffering and anguish says to those who will listen "Help the poor and be grateful for even bad times." Why should you even be glad in such an instance? Because he says "if you are still alive, God still loves you." This is a person who now understands the depth of heartache in those who live with nothing and have lost it all. Life then becomes a gift of God. We are so satisfied that things make life for us, but with God life, makes it life. That is, our life lived for God and with God is what makes true happiness. Let me ask you, when was the last time you gave to the poor? When was the last time you went without dinner and prayed for the lost? When was the last time you thanked God for your life?
This one of whom I speak also says this "NOT THE DAY MY FRENDS! BUT THE HOUR OF THE LORD IS AT HAND!"
He also says this about living on the streets "I SEE RAPID DECAY BY THE HOUR. LOVE WAXING NOT COLD BUT FREEZING ICE COLD, DEATH IS THE NORM! I SEE A MAN KILL ANOTHER OVER THE LAST CIG. HATE, WITH CHILDREN 8 YR OLD SMOKING CRACK AND FIGHTING THERE OWN MOTHER OVER THE LAST PUFF!"
Then in a moment of despair he cries out "OH MY GOD HOW LONG WILL YOU PUT UP WITH ME! AND IM CRYING LIKE A BABY AS WE SPEAK BECAUSE IT’S A TRUE REALITY FOLKS! JUDGE ME I COMPLAINED WHEN I GOT KICKED OUT NOT KNOWING I HAD IT GOOD! YOU AND I ARE NO BETTER THAN THEM WHO ARE ASLEEP IN THE WORLD. WAKE UP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AND GET OUT OF HER, FOR SHE IS DIEING! YOU WILL DIE A PERPETUAL DEATH WITH HER!"
He then flatly states that the thing that separates you from the world is the only begotten Son of the LIVING God Jesus Christ. He puts it this way: "What separates you is my SON JESUS CHRIST! SAYS THE LORD MY GOD! THERE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!"
The text ends with a message that he is tired, then signs it. Lt. Colonel S.C.

The only known address or contact I have is this one! Please pray for him and write if you can. I don’t know if this will get to him, it is the only address I have, which was sent in the text message.
GREG RINCHICH c/o RICKY BROWN P.O. BOX 274 BOSTIC, N.C. 28018
I have contacted a local Missionary outreach church there. I have taken the information which includes help for him and text him with the details. In short, they will help him get back on his feet, shelter, food, and all he needs. I don’t know if he will get the text message or if he will utilize the help. I pray he does. May God have mercy on him, help him, and deliver him to a level that will bring him total victory.
