Things are very crazy for Matt Warrren in Chicago USA. He's a street preacher to the homeless, but through a work accident he was injured, lost the ability to earn and has been homeless.
His book is on Amazon. The missing part of his story is getting some bad records in his unconverted days. Hopefully this will get sorted, but right now things are just too crazy , which is why I shared an example of when things sometimes get too too too ridiculous.Im not saying this lightly, but in my experience God doesn't usually answer far away....and He has a better answer than much of what you are doing, Im sure...its like crazy and too far round the houses. Im sure there's better examples but theone that springs to mind is the strange period I went through in Bible House. We'd spent 18 months making these crazy cork filled gonk type things for the UK gift trade. I was the main salesman for the house. I sold £30,000 of the things back in 1981 when houses were about £,28,000 of something. £30.000 sounds great but there were 20 to 25 adults in the one house and a few other salaries. The Argentinians went back and we were a skeleton staff trying to complete my orders. There was a couple of Argentinians left, and one was from the streets of Buenos Aires and was used to hustle. But if you knew the shops we were attemptong to sell to they really didnt do Argentinian hustle. I was really torn like you are between ....was my English manner just not hustly enough or did my lack of peace mean something. In a matter of short weeks we packed up trying to manufacture and a guy had come into our church ....an ex policeman converted through the Zefirelli Jesus of Nazareth film. He was led to come south from Wales and some obscure Isaiah verse mentioned ebony and ivory , and he was a great piano player....so he had begun a secondhand piano shop and thats where some of us learned to tune and restore
