I immediately thought he&#8217;s a wino, a bum &#8211; he&#8217;s going to waste it on whatever BS &#8211; I think. So I said God &#8211; no judgement. I will give just because. <\/p>\n<p>So the test I gave God was : if the light turns red then I will give him money. If not &#8211; then oh well&#8230;  So of course! the light turns red &#038; I stop. I open the window &#038; call this guy over to give him a buck.  <\/p>\n<p>He comes over with a big smile on his face &#038; humbly says thank you. He immediately changed my mood. He also tells me &#8220;God bless you&#8221; and says that his sign got ruined. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I need it to tell my story.&#8221; he adds. <\/p>\n<p>So I asked him what is your story. &#8220;I am just a homeless man&#8221; he says &#8220;you could even call me a bum. I drink, yes I may be a wino, but I am also human. Your dollar will help me to stay alive another day. Thanks Lord.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This was a sobering thought. He was repeating the words I was using to judge him &#038; he reminded that God does listen &#038; talks with us! Only we choose when we want to listen to Him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\ni found myself at the foot of the I-95 off ramp &#038; I am debating giving a homeless man some&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/2009\/06\/im-human-too\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;I&#8217;m Human Too&#8230;&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[10,21,6,22],"class_list":["post-25","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-inspirational","tag-enlightment","tag-god","tag-inspiring","tag-thoughts","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":250,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25\/revisions\/250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/psolis.com\/dreamscapes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
