My new friend Wally

Tonight I was dining at an outdoor table in the early evening at Dandos. An elderly homeless aboriginal man was wandering along the footpath and came over to me looking for some money. I told him to forget the money, he was going to have a feed of chicken with me and it wasn't going to cost a thing. I ordered him half a chicken and chips and sat talking to him. He was hard to understand, but I tried to shine the love of God at him. I asked what he'd done today and he said he was drinking under the bridge. I gave him a lift over to the South side of town and told him about a guy who died on a cross for him so he could have a better life. Told him that he should try to go see the Salvos rather than drinking under the bridge. Told him that we are no different to each other, we both need God to help us survive this world. Despite not getting a drink out of me, I think he appreciated that some people will take time to try to help others in trouble. Pray for Wally.

Dear administrator, I am the author of this post and just realized I have put the discussion in the wrong section of the forum. I have copied and pasted it into the Prayer section. Please delete this original one, as it is redundant.
Thank-you, and may the God of my ancestors bless you with the dreams and desires of your heart.
Andrew :)
