I was inspired by the other post so I am creating this thread.
The question is: If you saw a homeless person that was clearly emaciated, would you give them money for food?
About a month ago, I was in Baltimore city on my way to Johns Hopkins to visit my son. I was about a block away from JHH and an older woman came knocking on my window.
I had JUST gone to the ATM and gotten out a $10 bill for the parking garage BUT I had a leap of faith and gave her my $10 bill. For some reason, I had a feeling that I would get that money back.
I went ahead and visited my son but the whole time I was thinking about how I was going to pay for parking because now I had no money on me.
As I was walking towards the parking garage, I actually almost stepped on some money. I picked it up and counted it and it was $9! At first I thought "I better turn this in" but I looked around and noone was there. The security people would've just kept it (yes I know that for a fact) so I took it as divine intervention and thanked God for it. I paid my parking and had a couple bucks left over.
What a great thing, huh? I'm glad I did it and I would do it again.
