- ****Brenda Update: No Longer Homeless in New York City • Brenda Update: No Long...
Brenda is 60 years-old, she worked for 35 years, she is a college graduate, and she sleeps on the sidewalk of New York City.
I was a little shocked when Brenda told me she sleeps right here on the streets of New York City. With all the people walking by and the noise, I cannot imagine finding comfort enough to close my eyes. But for Brenda, that's where she feels safe.
When Brenda lived in San Diego, she was entering a bus, and the driver didn't see her got on. When the driver moved the door to take off, Brenda was knocked to the ground. Then when the driver pulled away, her leg slammed into the steel door.
Brenda was seriously injured. An ambulance took her to the hospital, but the accident was not reported with the proper protocol. Brenda then started legal proceedings and filed a lawsuit. The lawyer that was recommended to her wasn't honest, and the case never went anywhere. The judge dismissed the case and told Brenda she has every right to sue, but she would have to start all over again.
Brenda now receives $720 a month from Social Security, and that's not even close to enough to afford a place to stay.
At 9:26 I ask Brenda what she would want people to know about homelessness. She shares about how people are judgmental even about her wearing lipstick. Whenever I post a video with a woman that is trying to take care of herself by wearing makeup, lots of people freak out. They have a hard time understanding that homeless women still have the self-worth and decency to look presentable.
Most people that are experiencing homelessness do not look homeless. There is little to no education focused on teaching the general public the true realities of homelessness so people hold on to a lot of misconceptions.

About Invisible People:
Since its launch in November 2008, Invisible People has leveraged the power of video and the massive reach of social media to share the compelling, gritty, and unfiltered stories of homeless people from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C. The vlog (video blog) gets up close and personal with veterans, mothers, children, layoff victims and others who have been forced onto the streets by a variety of circumstances. Each week, they’re on InvisiblePeople.tv, and high traffic sites such as CZcams, Twitter and Facebook, proving to a global audience that while they may often be ignored, they are far from invisible.
Invisible People goes beyond the rhetoric, statistics, political debates, and limitations of social services to examine poverty in America via a medium that audiences of all ages can understand, and can’t ignore. The vlog puts into context one of our nation’s most troubling and prevalent issues through personal stories captured by the lens of Mark Horvath - its founder - and brings into focus the pain, hardship and hopelessness that millions face each day. One story at a time, videos posted on InvisiblePeople.tv shatter the stereotypes of America’s homeless, force shifts in perception and deliver a call to action that is being answered by national brands, nonprofit organizations and everyday citizens now committed to opening their eyes and their hearts to those too often forgotten.
Invisible People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the way we think about people experiencing homelessness.

That is not true. More and more women are homeless. BTW, we do not cherry pick stories.
Invisible People The one main reason I would like to be interviewed is to let everyone know what happened to me when the courts try charging me for my friends death when I was in the hospital when he was alive and was still in the hospital when people found him dead and he never died from what I was being charged with so now I was scared and they was threatened me saying I would go to prison for life as I was looking at 2 life sentence and a 20 year felony now I have a felony on my record and can't find a place to live as everyone does a background check nowadays. I have a housing voucher running out of time no luck PLEASE pray for me please sincerely Dano aka TUNA 1-231-645-8862
And yet social security punishes disabled people on SSI and treats then like shit like there on welfare, if your disabled social security takes out 1 dollar for every 2 dollars you earn ,when they shouldn't , you should be able to make as much as u want , you can't have over 2,000 in savings, you can't get married Because then they count your partners income and the maximum federal benefit rate is only 750.00 a month smfh , when it should be at least 1800.00 a month, if social security adjusted SSI for the cost of home prices and rents , and not just food and basic transportation,then you have the developers not building enough affordable housing, so we're in a crisis with low supply to much demand smh , the government needs to do better and take care of our people, starting off with a jobs program to hire random workers to be trained to build affordable housing, and market rate housing , we can no longer depend on developers anymore to help out the poor, middle class and disabled !!! Poor lady =[ , this is not a way for this country to treat the disabled at all , it's very sad ,
Homeless families comprise roughly 34% of the total U.S. homeless population
Approximately 1.6 million children will experience homelessness over the course of a year. In any given day, researchers estimate that more than 200,000 children have no place to live
People counted in the single adult homeless population (about 2.3-3.5 million annually) are also part of families: Among all homeless women, 60% have children under age 18, but only 65% of them live with at least one of their children Among all homeless men, 41% have children under age 18, but only 7% live with at least one of their children Who are homeless families? The typical sheltered homeless family is comprised of a mother in her late twenties with two children.
84% of families experiencing homelessness are female-headed. This is due to a number of factors:
Most single-parent families are female-headed (71%). Single-parent families are among the poorest in the nation and as such, are extremely vulnerable to homelessness

So happy you are safe & have a place to call home. 💜
ONE THING ABOUT BECOMING HOMELESS, YOU DEFINITELY WILL FIND OUT WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE.
Even Before becoming a homeless, in the predicament we've known who is fake and who is really a true friend.

GOD BLESS YOU BRENDA! 🙏🏾💓
Best wishes
Glad you’re okay!!!
@@bravenewboi thanks and Praise be to God. Amen. Stay well
I just watched your story... people are very ego based and ignorant and selfish and society today is all about survival of the fittest. People have no idea about certain difficult times unless they have experienced it themselves...
Not many will lend a hand to help these days. Gotta be greatful and thankful for those that lend their helping hand. Your a strong vibrant woman Brenda! You never let life beat you, and you should be proud of yourself!Life teaches us many lessons and as i tell my son, the person who has the most wisdom, hasnt lead an easy life! They have been through lots of dark times and survived them. And are still able to smile and love. If I was there, I woulda brought you to my house to stay....Good luck on your journey! Inspire others along the way... your story and journey will help others. ♥️
This is one of the strongest women I have seen.
She's very strong and brave blessings to you Brenda.
Hello folks, Well Hallelujah, I made it to PA and now I have my N.Y. i.d. I will leave N.Y. early Monday, stop at PA. Check on apt and if not, head back to San Diego. And buy a van and be a hippie. Yep!!!!
Love all of you, some nice man brought me a beautiful warm jacket, and I so needed it. Appreciating. I am so excited. I do hope the apt is ready. But I will do what I have to do. Either way I will be off of the sidewalk. Pray for me. And I cant thank everyone enough. You remind me that there are good people out there and it is easier to be nice than not nice. SO happy!!!!
brenda sprankle hoping you will get your apartment soon!
I am so happy for you. May GOD bless you. You are a beautiful lady😘
There aren't many places to go for help in San Diego. We've been turned away from every place we went to for help. San Diego is unaffordable for the homeless and working poor which is why many are leaving. Unless you're an illegal, you don't stand a chance of making it here. I hope you get that apt in PA.
I am praying for you Brenda and for your circumstances I love what you said about your relationship with God may he bless and protect you and keep you safe. You will be in my prayers!!
God bless you Brenda. Crossing my fingers for you!
I FIGURED OUT THE TITLE FOR MY BOOK "SO BLESSED in the LOWEST OF PLACES."
I think it's a nice title 😊
We are so proud of you Ms Brenda!
God bless you !💜
❤❤❤❤❤
@@kayv5840 thank you Kay, be well. Type Brenda Sprankle so blessed, I stream live on youtube, thanks
brenda sprankle favor in the famine
Breaks my heart seeing a decent women living in a street like that. I hope her problems are solved.
How can the system be so flawed that an educated articulate woman who worked her whole life ends up without support after becoming disabled? So glad to hear that she is homed and being helped. So candid and spirited I hope you write that book Brenda, Cheers!💙
Unfortunately this is all too common. Disabled folks are treated like subhumans by the system in the USA. People who cannot work, who qualify for disability benefits and badly need them, are denied many times. And even if you get them, they lock you in poverty because you can lose your benefits if you make just enough money to be above the poverty line, or have too much in savings. Something needs to change.
USA says we are keeping justice but they are not they are denying the right
Yes I totally agree.
@@NeuroLushiaI want to cry 😢
this woman has dignity never let anyone take that
@jo camble where in the video did she say she was an addict? did you even watch it??
True
As of May 2019. I got my apt. Life is good. God is better. Praise the Lord.
UwU granny
Happy for you
this lady deserves better wish i cud help here,i not sure how the usa benefit systems works,i wish brenda goodlucl
Praise Jesus.
Soooo happy for you congratulations ❤️
She is strong, I admire how she takes care of herself in spite of her hard conditions. She has faith in God
Brenda ..... you are dam right .... thank god you got your apartment.. god has kept you safe my sister .. you are in my thoughts and prayers ... ainsley ... trinidad
ENDING MY HOMELESS JOURNEY, NOW I MAY WRITE A BOOK
brenda sprankle congrats Brenda!
Hi Brenda, just seen this video and this last comment has given me hope that you have found a home !
Write that book lovely lady ♡
brenda sprankle please tell your story!
Write the book! We will support & share❤🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@luminescent__ I am in the right frame of mind to write it;, and I like being alone where I live. The neighbors gossip all day and night, talk terrible of one another. It is the perfect place to shut yourself in and write a book. focus, But I have to get a biopsy on my right boob. I will do it later, I have to return to ny in august and take care of the fake ticket I received.
A FEW DAYS OF REST AND I SHOULD BE BACK TO NORMAL. NOW I CAN EAT RIGHT AND LOSE WEIGHT. TAKE BETTER CARE OF MYSELF. SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the update. You're a beautiful, smart and strong woman and I wish you the best. I too worked my whole life since age 14 and am now disabled. My body just keeps breaking, literally, knee. Leg bones like I'm made of glass. But I got a family to help me and I thank God every single day for every second of the day. Bless you
@@reenym3577 I liked you comment. I am happy that you have a family to help you, but God knew I did not. I am okay with that and I understand some things just are not under out control. An injury that happens from someone else doing it. Injustice in the Superior Court System, not the Judge, but the Lawyer. It was dismissed without predjustice but I never signed off on anything.
@@brendasprankle9394 I hope you get justice. You deserve justice. Best of luck to you. I'm sorry your lawyer turned out so bad. I hope you can find a pro bono lawyer willing to take on your case.
Brenda , I'm so happy to see someone having faith in the Lord. I have an interesting story as well. I was homeless for a few months after my husband died in 2003 , but fortunately I had friends to stay with during that time. I had a home , but was slowly losing it , and everything else. I couldn't afford the propane for my heat , or any of my other utilities. I have severe Rheumatoid Arthritis , and worked until I could no longer do so. It took me a couple years to get my disability. It's such a long story , but God pulled me through it. I kept trusting in him , and he sent a 76 year old Godly woman to become my mentor. She helped me in getting closer to the Lord. This woman ( Miss June) had several gifts of the Holy Spirit. I LITERALLY had God hug me using her arms , and speak to me using her voice. I had just cried out to him the night before and told him that I wished he could hug me. He did! He wanted to comfort me. He is amazing! I had a nervous breakdown back then. Anyway , I was patient , and trusted him. He helped me to keep my house , and I am about to sell that one , and buy a new one. (Big enough for my sister and mother , who have it hard.) I'm so happy that you are doing better. Keep trusting in the Lord. He can make the impossible happen. Don't listen to the devil. He is a liar! He wants to take our faith , and make us believe that God is not going to help us. God is ALWAYS with us. He said he would never leave us or forsake us . He don't lie! I love him more than anything. Take care my friend , and dream big! , because we serve a big God! Love you! ❤
Greetings to you in the name of Jesus Christ!!! Amen!!! Please Check vitamin C and D levels??? Believe HOLY God don't just say you believe...BUT BELIEVE HIM FOR ALL HEALING, FOR HE IS OUR HEALERRRRR!!! AMEN!!! ARE YOU A BELIEVER IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST??? AMEN!!! WHO CAME WITH HEALING IN HIS WINGS!!! AMEN!!! AMEN!!!
This story should be all over the papers. This is a woman who needs and deserves help.
Appreciate it Tom. I give updates on my youtube channel, type, brenda sprankle so blessed.
AMERICA REQUIRES TRUMP
WAKE UP AMERICA
This video broke my heart...So happy she found a home..
“Never say never” ain’t that the truth. If a little bit of lipstick and eyeshadow makes her feel better about herself then why not. people are so quick to judge, it’s terrible.
Kim Basciano it's the world we live in today like I said America and the world in general is it is in Decline it was not this years ago but it's getting worse and worse now it's getting very very easy to be homeless now that's why me I live in a van and got out of the rat race in advance
ska punk exactly. The USA is nothing more than a cleptocracy. The rich are controlling the government officials and pushing more and more people into the lower levels of society. Like Bernie said, we need a serious political revolution in this country. People need to take to the street in every town and start DEMANDING change. Vote all these corrupt politicians out and regain our own control. We deserve better as a society.
Kenneth White I agree with you 110% I'm anti-government myself because the system is not working but I think it's set up on purpose not to work cuz if you are making all the money and making the rules and the rest of us are following except me I refuse to follow the rules that's why I live in my van this way to get no consumption from me and they won't be no tax money for me either I'll find a way to work under the table somewhere
:) Also your life can go drastically to the better in a split of a second, not just for the worse, so always keep your optimism on and have faith.
Kim Basciano: Absolutely. When your life is that messed up, it's NECESSARY to find small things that make you feel better. Besides, does everyone remember that when someone is being filmed for broadcast, they HAVE to wear a little makeup? The people filming her may have given her the makeup so she wouldn't look like a very ill zombie, which is how anyone looks on film with no makeup...
Thank you for reminding me to always reach out to Jesus Christ. I am in my apt. And no longer a homeless woman. Thanks be to God for everything. I am elated. A very emotional time. We can pray for one another. I am blessed
Brenda, love from a sis in Christ. What an incredible faith in Jesus in such tough times. Praise and Glory be to God. You are a living testimony. Hope to see you one day either on this earth or up in heaven with Jesus. I am thanking God for you. May we show our love in action not mere words. Happy for you.
Your faith is so strong and it’s very inspiring! God bless you ❤️
I am so happy for you. I have thought about you alot and am so happy that your no longer homeless.
Just reading your story. You are an inspiration. I’m glad you have a home now. You are a strong lady.
Seen your story last year and prayed for you to get a home and be at peace. This morning I learned that you are now in an apt....Thank you God!
I'm so happy for you...thanks for not giving up and knowing the Lord is always there for you. There is power in prayer! God bless you Brenda.

Thank you Jesus!! God is SO good. Your faith in Christ carried you. God has rained blessings down on you. I pray you are doing well. I'm sorry you had no family to care enough to take you in. Had I seen you on the street you would not have spent another night on the street. My sister in Christ, keep running the race.
So nice to hear Brenda. You are colorful & beautiful & strong! 💜

Happy to hear this Brenda!!!!

and its sickening cause not one of those people would get their mother off the street.
Cali. Offers good weather and you are allowed to sleep from 9 to 5am. So you can take better care of yourself.
What a frustrating emotion when listening to her story.
Brenda, may the Lord bless you always.
Got my sleeping bag out at 5 and then the rain. No rest. Back in Penn station. Tired. Hope the rain moves out. Have a great and fun filled day folks. Thanks for listening. Brenda
brenda sprankle hey Brenda hope all is well
Stay strong.

Go get it sistah! Keep doing the lipstick!
Hey Brenda can we have an update on how you're doing?
GOD BLESS EVERYONE AND PLEASE REMEMBER, LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. BE KIND.
I'm not really a person of faith but love your neighbour as yourself is something I like to live by. I'm very glad you're doing good.
I'm so happy you're off the street , that's no place for you to be . God bless you !

Very true 👍
Seeing the people walking like no one gives a damn or anything about what's happening around them is really concerning. I know minding our own business is what we are taught to do but this is pathetic. I'm not going teach my kids that " don't be so much into your life that you totally forget about the other lives around you "

@Deep Inside You're disgusting. Did that make you feel good about yourself? Leave her alone.
she has more class sitting there then all the upper class women in new york...GOd Bless you
She makes the House Wives of New York look ridiculous.
What's the point of having class if you can't even provide for your basic needs. Classy attitude doesn't necessarily feed you.

The government must do something for the homeless people im praying for her as soon as possible to have a home shes a senior
I just saw this 1st time....BLESS YOUR HEART, BRENDA....YOU ARE AN AMAZING. AMAZING WOMAN....🙏
I am writing my book and I hope to finish in the spring and get it published. I would like to donate a percentage to the homeless. I am not sure of the Title at this point.
excellent!!
Yo- Brenda :). I too was in an accident on May 5, 2015 and I’m still waiting for any kind of compensation whether it’s in California or New York these attorneys are so shady when it comes to personal injuries, it’s disgusting and I still have lower back issues and a bad knee from the accident. By the way I’m talking to text so I hope this made sense.

How are you doing now ? Where are you living ?
I totally understand where this lady is at. Pain is crippling, emotionally and physically. The courts do take advantage of the disabled too.
Heart breaking to be in her position! People should help people!!! We can all end up like her when we have an accident it can happen to anyone and life can change in split second + she is right!
I have nothing but respect for her!!!!
This lady is well spoken and articulate; you never know what tomorrow may bring. Never say never!
Yes, having a college education doesn't exempt us from hardships, homelessness ..been there...lost my job, divorced all within 2 months... it'll take you for a loop.
Well spoken OMG!! Stop using that term.....
Crying for all the Injustice, Praying for a calm to come soon.

My thoughts are whit you Brenda. Here in Montreal(canada), they take care of disable peoples, homeless ect. I have done volunteering for the homeless in the past and most of people dont have a clue wy and how you can find yourself living in the streets. They judge so easily. Its a shame. Good luck whit everything. Much love to you, Peace XO
Nice to see that you fought back and never loosed hope
I love you my sister of light. Sending you hugs and encouragement 🥰
LOVE TO EVERYONE, BE SAFE AND STAY CALM. IT WILL ALL BE OKAY SOON
God bless you!
Love to you. So happy to hear you’re ok ❤️
I'm so happy for you
Thank for posting that. I needed to hear that bless you.
God Bless u by His Grace.
I'm a Native of San Diego and i believe her story without question.
Brenda you’re a class act and a true gem may God shine his light upon you now and forever more
Brenda you are such an inspiration. God has a big plan for you! I know what you mean when people misjudge your situation. Life just happens to people we never know what they have had to walk through. I will be praying for you from Texas.
GOD has answered my prayers. I have housing, one year in May 2020. When you get your Stimulus Check, buy a t shirt or sweat shirt, I am.
Well deserved ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@@emmawoodard3655 Hi Emma, Hope your doing well. God Bless You.
I am so happy to hear this. Lord was testing your faith. And you won it. The fact, you are preparing for your hereafter's home. Love ❤ from India 🇮🇳
We are all SOOOO happy for you!!!!
Be happy for simple things. A smile from someone, a wave, a concerned friend, a beautiful day, water to drink and a bed to sleep in. It is much more than some may think.
We must appreciate what we have watching these homeless people made me appreciate in life more
I am so glad you have an apartment now. May God bless you.
I just took a 5 day trip to PA and the manager said the person that is having their apt renovated is in the apt that I will get. As soon as she returns to hers, I can move in.
That great brenda, God bless, may God send his angels to watch over you always!
Where are in PA? That's where I live God bless your beautiful soul
I’m so glad you’re keeping us updated because I would love to know what is happening to other homeless people after he films them.

"Someone else messed me up, I didn't mess myself up" - so true
She is full of dignity
It was nice to hear from Mark of Invisible People, I am a success story, finally
When we no longer have the strength to keep going.... Jesus holds us in his arms and gives us that strength we need to push just a little further....... Thankyou for sharing your story. May God continue to bless you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
brenda sprankle God bless you Brenda. Praise God for his goodness. Ms Deedee from Ohio.
I’m so happy to see you got housing!!!! What a sweet and genuine lady you are!!!! God bless you!!!
@@fondaproctor9034 Thank you so much and I am genuine, for real. God Bless You
@@brendasprankle9394 God bless you Brenda I pray you are well and stay that way.
I am a college educated woman and have worked my whole life. Through a series of unfortunate events that were beyond my control, I ended up homeless. That was 6 years ago. I am no longer homeless and I have a great life. I helped myself out of that situation. Brenda, you are awesome!!!
God Bless You, I stream live on youtube channel, brenda sprankle so blessed
Strong ..Respect
She’s very bright I love her❤️
Love to you Lois. take care
This could be any of us. Count your blessings
Andrea Reddrea
So true. Thank you for reminding me to be humble.
Andrea Reddrea Agreed. And even if we tried to count the blessings of God, we would never be able to enumerate them. All Praise & Thanks is due to God, the Lord of the worlds.
No not if you are responsible with your money
@@timpike1616 Did you even watch the video 🤦♀️
Neptunes 29 yep did you
You have no idea until you walk in someones shoes what homelessness is really all about. You struggle everyday and jump hurdles and then new ones and more. Bathrooms, hygiene, mental health, social existence, food, hunger, sleep depravation, patience, stability, confidence, comfort, joy, YOU HAVE NO IDEA. BUT I MIGHT WRITE THAT BOOK.
please share what your facebook name is.
You better write that book.
Any current news on the apt for you? Crps is debilitating, I feel for you. You have amazing strength. You're too strong to stay down any longer.
yes write the book darling. so much injustice everywhere!!!
Please do!!!! You have changed my perspective on homeless people. It could be anyone
"I'll put it on more and more -- that's how I am!" Yes, Miss Brenda!
Loved when u said, I live in faith in Jesus, love u lady, Jesus loves u. He is with u n God will turn all things into good. Bless u.
The disability system needs to change
And in the uk
Yeah let’s get rid of it... at lest for most people
I am resting and I really needed my place. So thankful. I waited 18 months for this place. God is good. Tired
Brenda, that is so good that you now have housing. Hopefully, you can continue to write updates on this U-tube video. I think your sense of humor helps keep you sane, besides your faith in Jesus Christ.
brenda sprankle
That’s fantastic
Enjoy your new place!
So you did get your apartment finally??? What a heart breaking story this has been...If you have a po box or an address i would love to send you a little something to help you get on your feet. Youve been threw enough already. Its always ppl who have had nothing that appreciate the things most ppl take for granted everyday. Its your time to shine girl! I hope your snuggled up in your bed right now with a kitty on your lap & a snack in your hand not having to worry about where youll sleep tonight.❤
@@christinagange3831 My new address is 215w chocolate avenue, Hershey, PA 17033 Right beside Hershey Park, the roller coaster is in my backyard. Thanks for caring and sharing.
I hope your well and all is great with you. I love my new place and I am settling in.. Working on doctors now.
Bless you Brenda im glad you're off the streets and safe 🙏 ❤
God bless this lady!
She's gotta be someone's mother/grandmother... They should feel ashamed letting her live like this...
Not everyone brings forth crotch fruit.
Finesse God I wouldn’t let one family member live like this. Even if I hated their guts I’d help get them back on their feet
@@michelleboutwell-goodman818 wow Ava thanks for telling the world about how much better you are then some other people. I don't think any of us could have gotten by without realizing how much bigger your heart is and your (possible) tendency towards codependency.
They live on the street by choice, all alcoholics are defiant.
Finesse God you’re so naive.
This is the first time I've ever read the comments section where the person in the video actively interacts with those commenting. What a wonderful way to keep everyone updated. So glad that things are working out for you Brenda. Many blessings.
I have my own youtube channel, brenda sprankle so blessed
I agree
I agree
I agree
❤
You are beautiful Brenda! So happy you are safe in an apartment!
Hello Debbie 😊
Hello friend
her faith moves me❤️
A LITTLE KINDNESS GOES A LONG WAY!!!! DONT BE AFRAID TO SHOW SOME. IT NEVER HURTS
BRENDA
Slept out all night in my warm sleeping bag. Thanks be to God. Happy Holidays a us. Thanks for being human. I appreciate it. Brenda
brenda sprankle i wish I saw this video sooner & heard your story, would love to have had you over for Christmas dinner, I also live in NYC, not to far from the city, just a ferry ride away.
@@dawne0207 can't you make a trip to her then? Why not make a special post holiday dinner?
Happy New Year Brenda, I'm excited for ur new year in your new apt.
Makes me sad that people saw her sign about adopting a 60 year old and laughed and took photos...god bless this lovely, brave lady.
Catherine, the laughter was in good taste, it was funny. Just fun. I stream live on my youtube channel, I have apt. over a year now. Brenda Sprankle so blessed, updates on my channel
@@brendasprankle9394 oh that's good, thankyou.

I ADORE YOU 😂😂💗💗💗 sending so much love and light to you!
WE ALL COULD BECOME HOMELESS. Be Thankful. ☺
snow bunny
Exactly !!! Ignorant idiots will ignore this !
SO TRUE !!!! JESUS CHRIST IS THE TOOLBOX, THE WHOLE KIT N KABOODLE !!!!!! I TOO FACED HOMELESSNESS AFTER GOING THROUGH A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN PREVIOUS MARRIAGE AND REPENTED AND CRIED OUT TO JESUS, HE LITERALLY SAVED ME !!!!! HE IS MY ANCHOR AND JESUS CHRIST, YESHUA HA MASHIACH, IS WHO HE SAY HE IS!!! PLEASE START READING IN THE BOOK OF JOHN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT AND LET HIM BAPTIZE YOU IN THE FIRE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND MAKE YOU BORN AGAIN (JOHN 3:3-7/ACTS 2:38/ROMANS 10:9 KJV) !!!! #WORDOFGOD: Come unto ME, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take MY yoke upon you, and learn of ME; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and MY burden is light.
Matthew 11:28-30 KJV

I hope that she finally gets housing and gets the money that is owed to her.
Kim Basciano yes AMEN..definitely. i went through similar. .big battle and took a few years. Ok now but still disabled and incapacitated with much pain..atb
Kim Basciano sad , this happens in America
at what point do you see her socks???? don't be so quick to judge someone you don't know
Kim Basciano Same
Kim Basciano We too
What a Gem of a Soul. Smart and Soulful, so Inspiring xx
Hello friend
Youre really a strong and faithful person ..God be with you ...
I like her she's keeping it 💯 Never say never cuz you really don't know what life can throw you. Stop judging people,. Keep your head up and wearing your pretty lipstick 💄💄💄💋💋
Miranda Nevels right, like she doesn’t deserve dignity. She deserves a lot more than lipstick.
Damn right! Sometimes this country😣
*THE LORD BLESS AND KEEP HER*
carlito biggs Amen
carlito biggs
It's clear the Lord God is not helping her.
Katastroofi Eelne Why do you have such negativity for a situation you're not even in when she , who is, is so positive and hopeful ? Because Jesus gives her that hope while you are clearly a complaining , bitter person.
KTA P Change your ways and turn to Jesus Christ, HE is the way, the truth and the light. No one comes to the Father but through Him.
KTA P If He keeps knocking on your door to help you in some way but you never open, you'll never realise that He wanted to give you much more than a sh*t... No one can save someone who refuses to be saved... 😔
There should not be any homeless. We are a gods children.
