True Story

So I came to Dublin without a Bible. Because I brought a Bible to Tofino and didnt read it once. So I figured less luggage weight. Yup, Im a genius... Until I started going to Carissas Bible study and since its a daily study I was stuck. So I went to the Christian bookstore around the corner and only wanted to by one book. But that doesnt really happen so I was checking out the New Testament. I came to the till with an inexpensive edition when a woman talking to the clerk gave me a mini New Testament. Without my realisation she had bought it for me. I was really thankful and greatful. Nice woman she is. Then she handed me a euro which she said was a blessing. Strange and weird to me and it has never happend to me before. Basically unfamiliar to my eyes and I still dont know what or how I feel about this. BUT I said thank you and that I would pass it on. So I continued on my day and asked God that he direct me to the right person who needed it because I didnt. I wasnt worried. I just new that when I new someone really needed it, I would know. I went by lots of homeless people but I just didnt feel like feeding their crack addictions. Later on in the day a girl caught my eye, she was crying and she was familiar. I had met here three weeks prior to this. She was the daughter of a woman in rehab and her step dad would beat her. So, at 15, she decided to run away. And now was living on the streets because the youth shelters had no more vacancies. Damn them, this is unjustifiable. I came over to her and hugged her. We were talking and I gave her the euro, which was honestly the only cash I had on me. She was crying because she had just walked out of the bank with 300 hundred euros in her hand. Being young and a lil naive she walked out with the money just chilling in the palm of her hand. Someone swipped it and ran off. Now she has no money. Both times I have seen her I beg to take her out for lunch or even just a tiny chocolate bar. She always refuses and says that its way to embarassing. I really want to help her. When all she wants is money. Pray for this girl peeps. Shes as young as my brother. I have a feeling shes sleeping around for money for drugs. Maybe its my wild imagination. But the way she was dressed this second time seeing her, I kinda figured? She really needs help but shes so independant.
