The Holy Spirit Is Christ Jesus Alive:

Matthew 28:16-20. The son of God came to redeem the world, Luke
19:10. He ordered us to duplicate Him; so, we must try to save the lost,
John 21:19. We should be imitators of Him because He created us in His
image. The Holy Spirit and evangelist were a portion of my salvation and

others.

I remember the day the Holy Spirit saved me. I was homeless and the
rain poured down on me. Soak and wet, I may have been muddy, another
reason, I considered giving up drug use. The rain may have been a sign

from heaven because it hardly rains here in California. I wondered, did
the Lord make it rain so that the homeless can be motivated to care for
themselves enough to stop wandering the streets without a future, a sin. If
He restored me from such a past, He would restore anybody. There is no
situation too hard for God, Jeremiah 32:17.

I was in a bad place. I had to report to the Probation Department while
homeless. At night, I could not sleep because the ground was too cold. I
slept when the morning came because of the warm sun. I missed many
appointments, which resulted in a warrant. Still, there are homeless shelters

and low-priced hotels. Once a staff member asked me to leave the shelter
because I accidentally hit the back of a chair someone was sitting. It was
the reaction to the drugs. Still, they suffered a drug program there, but I

did not l know it at the time. Finally, I was a part of that program after my
symbolic wandering; probably why I was not in a shelter? Spending money
on drugs is why I could not discover transitional housing.
I know my heavenly Father could have prepared a way for me to report,
but it was not that severe. I am reaping consequences of jail. Bad weather
