homeless people smell http://jesuspress.posterous.com

Have you ever noticed, homeless people smell?  I bet most of you assumed it, but have never verified the obvious truth…. homeless people smell.  Why is that?

Why is it you can not bring to mind the smell of a homeless person?  Could it be you were born with a rare but never fatal disease that prevents your nose from smelling?  If so, I am so sorry you have missed the opportunity to smell the sweet if not offensive smell of the homeless.  

I once backpacked and wondered where I would get a shower.  I was told by those more experienced than I, after 3 days of hiking and no bath… the smell will get as bad as it will get.  It’s seems to be true and confirmed by the homeless.

For those of you who quickly recounted the remembered smell of a homeless person, thank you.  Keep the smell fresh in your memory as you look for the next opportunity God will give you to prove to the world He is alive and well.  

I believe God has a special place for those disadvantaged here on earth.  When God gives you the opportunity to minister to one of the least… be blessed.  God has honored you and blessed them.

Surf on over and see what Advance Him is up to… serving the least.
