We all have times of tribulation: finance troubles, family worries, health concerns, etc. For the homeless, these multiply tenfold.
One way to cope and hold on is through the words of the Bible. You may not believe in God or the Bible, but consider this: the flowers and the lilies of the field are arranged in beauty, yet they do not worry. People are stronger, and you can overcome anything if you believe in yourself and try God — I know that works for me. It could work for you, too.
