Formerly homeless helping homeless

I’m on the phone with one of my formerly homeless friends.  He was out canning and dumpster diving this morning and he found a really nice blanket and a hooded sweatshirt. He gave it to a homeless guy who sleeps outside.  (Like he used to.)  A soda truck driver saw him picking up cans and gave him a case of diet soda that was about to go out of date.  My friend brought those with him to his Bible study class and passed them out.   He also gave one of the (recently homeless) ladies at the Bible study a sweater that he got from some college kids.

I love my friends.  I hope your friends are as cool and loving and thoughtful and compassionate as my friends.
