Well, the idea is to give to the beggar WITH GOD’S BLESSINGS... now right away you’ll say EEEERK! is it a blessing to pay for a junkie’s drugs and booze and... well, if you invoke the supernatural power on the gift by devoting it to the glory of God, things will begin to happen in that beggar’s life to turn him to the good. Things you might not guess.
YES we can invoke supernatural power and no I’m not being one of those telegimmick preachers. Although God even blesses telegimmick preachers because at least they’re saying He can do something special when glorified. I’m just saying take God as seriously as the people the bible tells about, did.
Detroit lost one of its finer citizens a couple of weeks back when the Lets go Tigers guy was hit and killed by a hit and run driver. In fact the driver killed the Tigers guy and another “street person” he was pushing in a wheelchair.
He was one of those guys who fell into a role or found a niche and Comerica park let him stay. He didn’t harass people for money or anything he was a cheerleader in front of the entrance. He just sang “Lets go Tigers, eat em up” wearing his Hulk hands with a cup fastened into one.
Those people don’t bother me a bit.
