In the blink of an eye!
The other night I hosted a membership class for the church.
Four to five people had signed up for the class.
Only two showed up and one of those was unexpected.
Halfway through the class I realized something.
I was in awe.
Within a year, both persons had gone from homelessness to being part of a church family and finding a home.
God is amazing!

High Housing Costs Hurt Effort to Aid Homeless in Hawaii - ABC News
Throwing the homeless in jail is not the solution. Our focus should be on prevention and housing first.
The money they are spending on clean up alone could go a long way to solving the problems.
The high cost of living only accentuates the problem.
The climate being what it is in Hawaii will always attract folks to living outside when there is no affordable housing.
Clean up will not solve the issue.
Prevention and housing first cost about 1/3 of the cost of enforcement, medical and incarceration.
