We are taught God created everything but often he has some help. Here’s how a homeless man was created. He was living in a house owned by his 92 year old uncle and paying rent but he was late two months, $200. He gave him money but was told to bring it back in the morning. The uncle inherited a very large amount of land and recently sold off several acres for some new homes. Plenty of money.
Our nephew was made to pay rent after his parents passed. After being told to come back tomorrow to pay so rich uncle could give him a receipt he left thinking everything was OK. He went off with the idea he would come back in the morning.
Next morning he was rousted out of bed by his brother who had to enter the apartment illegally since he wasn’t invited. and told to leave his home. He was afraid of his brother so he called the police who watched as the locks were changed. The name of the locksmith was on the sides and back of the truck. The police, according to a local lawyer are aware that a lock-out violated the law but they don’t enforce that one. A friend was called and he took his meager belongings in several plastic bags and stored them in the woods on the farm. He was a newly minted homeless man in Bucks County.
Some of the embarrassing details are left out to evoke sympathy such as he likes to use nail polish. His uncle believed he was gay so he changed the locks, did not give him a key and out he went.
Other details are not shameful, just that he needed help and none came.
The friend gave him a bicycle. Three days later it was stolen. Another friend gave another bike. Again,
stolen. Three more bikes. Same story. One step forward, two steps back no one gets to heaven like that.
A friendly worker at a donut shop let him sit in the warmth and nurse a coffee for hours. Same at a pizza shop that was open 24/7.
Riding his bicycle his head hit a traffic sign. It took 13 steel staples to close the head wound. 13 years in the Air Force hasn’t helped get help.
A spill going down a hill in Bucks county resulted in a crash and a broken collarbone.
During a visit to the Philly homeless community he was lured by a young girl and jumped by her three co-conspirators and robbed. His wallet, drivers license, military ID and some money were taken. May they rot from the heroin they bought. He filed, without a lawyer, a complaint at the courthouse in Doylestown and would be dead by now if he had relied on the justice that’s supposed to be there. He’s still waiting for a judge to order his uncle to let him back in the house from which he was evicted quite contrary to the laws that are supposed to prevent a lockout eviction . Some landlords care even less about the laws than the robbers.
Thanksgiving found the white male being helped at a black church where he was given free breakfast, lunch and dinner. You never know where your friends will come from.
What’s next? Hope it’s not too bad, that help isn’t too late. All caused by the uncle’s illegal lockout.
Wanna help? Give a bit to the panhandlers instead of walking on by and living your own life.
