Inner Heat

Who cares about the beggar on the street
With his frostbitten hands and his worn out feet?
Stop,
Look into his eyes
You won’t see any heat
For the flame’s long died
And the man feels defeat.

Take a moment, don’t judge him, or say he’s to blame
Or put himself through such suffering and pain.
Remember, this poor soul too has a name
In God’s eyes you’re both just the same

For here is a man, for unknown reasons
Has gave up hope
And stopped believing
Not caring if he makes it through another season

Left without dignity and feeling no worth
Maybe it’s self inflicted, or could be from birth
Living in hell, and dying here on earth

Rejection cuts deep and the hurt won’t heal
All a homeless man knows is he needs another meal
Life’s circumstances have brought him to beg, borrow or steal

There is no medicine on the shelf
To make him feel good about himself
Only love and understanding
Can cure his mental and emotional health

So take the time to say hi, talk with him a while
It may just be what he needs to go that extra mile
As you’re about to part, you may notice a slight smile
You will come to feel that inner heat
You’ve brought to that poor exile.

My hair is my art. When I did the hair it was with magic marker because the food colouring was coming out. I put the yellow up first because that’s God shining down on us. And then I was asking him to rain down blessing so I put the blue in to help us grow and be prosperous so I put the green in, and then I put the purple in because that is one of the colours of the tabernacle of God. And because when you take the blood of Jesus and the water that came out of him, because he is also the everlasting water, then they make purple. I put pink in for the girls too and I put in sparkly hearts and sparkles on to sparkle it up so the whole world will be bright. And I said a prayer for everybody when I was doing it, that all the blessings would come down on all of us.

And then I did the heart on here so that when we do hand fist bumps, because we are not supposed to hug during Covid, its like saying “love you”

I got this sweater and I thought it was really, really awesome because I really like sparklies. This lady at Willow’s place she didn’t have any clothes so I gave her the sweater, but it was too big on her so she trimmed it, she tossed away the trimmed piece, I went wait a minute, I can make something out of that, I can make a face covering out of that. And then I found the beads, somebody left a bag somewhere and it had beads in it, so I took the beads. The blue is Jesus, the green is the growth, and the purple is for all of us children.

Who else had a crush on Uncle Jesse/ John Stamos?

"I've had such a crush on Uncle Jesse. He was so cool and such a good uncle"

Ps - unfortunately Uncle Jesse does not come to the drop in.

Art drop in @thehubhamilton is pausing for a short

We want to make sure there is room for people to eat as safely as possible - which means making space at the art table.

Take away art packs are available at the counter.
