It was another great day of ministry in East Durham today. Jill was not the only thing going on today. There are so many hurting people on the streets. I want to again thank Jim & Angel Clements. They are the owners of the new awesome coffee house..."Koinania" located in the shopping center at the corner of Miami & T.W. Alexander. The sweets that they donate to the ministry bring big smiles to many folks on the streets!!!
I continue to run into Calvin on the streets. They needed blankets because of the cold nights. He continues to live in an abandoned house and is now hooked up with a woman of the streets. It is time for both of them to make a choice of what they are going to do with their lives. They both know better than to continue doing what they are doing. At this point they just love sin more than they love Jesus. Close to the point where they will just have to let the devil take care of them if they do not want to change.
Tina was one of three new homeless to Durham. They were all very hungry so I set them up with a McDonald's gift card a piece and some extra food. There were a number of other people who were needing food yesterday. This is just a time when many are hurting and it seems like the homeless population is really growing. The thing they must understand that Jesus is the only cure to all of this mess.
These pics are of some awesome artwork that I just noticed yesterday in an underpass. This is right in the hood. I wish that I would have been able to see who did this to talk to them. What a powerful message for all to see in a heavy traffic area. Here is the scripture......
2Timothy 3:2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 6 For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, 7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

Very fitting scripture for the day we are living in!
Big Outreach Tomorrow....Hope to see you there!!!
