This is an amazing video for a few reasons. For one, it truly showcases the power of God in desperate situations. For another, it shows what amazing things these kinds of ministries can do for people with addictions and other problems. It also shows why it’s important not to just write off people you see on the streets because we all make gross assumptions as to why they are there, but we can never really know why. Most people look and have no pity, or don’t bother looking at all, but these are real people that are hurting and most aren’t on the streets by choice.
It also really illustrates that God does indeed mean it when He says “come as you are”. If we had to be perfect to come to God, we wouldn’t need God because we would be perfect. But since we are not perfect, it is through His boundless grace that He takes us in, regardless of what we’ve done in the past or what we’re doing now. The first step is simply to acknowledge the fact that we need God and to make that first step… to come to Him with all our problems and baggage and pain intact. He will work with us and in us after we take that first step; we don’t have to do any more than simply admit that we need Him more than anything.
Please pray for the work the Dream Centre and other similar ministries are doing. It is of vital importance to the people that go through those doors every day.
