I haven't blog in forever. A lot is going on in my personal life. I will get through whatever is going on in my personal life. It's crazy but I got this.
Maybe about a month ago I went down to a homeless shelter while looking around for places for my dad to live. I was expecting something way different than what I was actually expecting it to be when walking in this homeless shelter.
I talked to a nice guy about getting involved at this homeless shelter and I told him about how I am starting up a Christian Non-Profit Organization for the homeless. He's like "You Gotta Start Somewhere" that was so inspiring to me. I told him "I wanted to do something more than what all these other people are doing with their organizations. It's kind of hard to explain what exactly I wanted to do with my Christian Non-Profit Organization. I also didn't tell him a lot about my organization b/c I don't want anyone to steal my ideas that I am going to use for my Christian Non-Profit Organization.
I looked around the homeless shelter place and every homeless person I came in contact with was so nice and said hi and or waved hi and smiled to me. It warms my heart.
This guy invited me that same night I talked to him to go back to the homeless shelter to feed the homeless. I didn't end up going back. I just couldn't go back. Nothing against anyone. I just wasn't ready to go back.
I knew if I would of gone back I would be wrecked to pieces for a good thing. (As in I would come home and cry and be inspired more to give back to the homeless and it happened to me once about 7 months but just a different situation with a different homeless person in a different city.) I am a caring yet tender hearted person at the same time. I am just not ready to handle that just yet. In the past month have been thinking about going back to this homeless shelter and just giving it a try and see what happens. I mean Hello!; my Christian Non-Profit Organization is for the homeless among other things too.
I know I have been saying I was going to get my Christian Non-Profit Organization up in and happening a month ago but with everything going on in my personal life I just had to stay away from it for while b/c I just couldn't deal with it. I was trying to figure out what to do with my life. Since every time I try to move forward I have obstacles and road blocks to jump over or go through. I am doing much better and I am ready to launch the Christian Non-Profit Organization and see where it goes. :D

My Burning Passion....
This blog has been taken a while to write as I gather all my thoughts and dreams. This city I am in; homeless are everywhere. It breaks my heart to the point of having a burning passion to do something about these homeless people.
For instance this homeless person last night last I asked if he was okay or needed help. Yes he was so drunk. I wouldn't judge or treat someone any different from someone being sober.
But what broke my heart is that my bro and I were getting gas and we went passed this homeless person and he was bent over and was about to fall flat on his face. My first instant reaction was that this homeless person was dead.
I told my bro when we get back home I am going to walk over there and make sure this homeless guy is okay. Sure enough my mom and bro went with me. My mom ask he was okay and if he needed help.
My mom talked to this two guys one that just said hes like that all time and the other guy who is friends with him said that hes over here everyday. That kind of stuff really gets under my skin and I want to shake/knock them out to make them realize what is going on. I don't and I let it go. It still makes me mad. I tell God to "USE ME" for these homeless people.
With all this stuff God has been teaching me and show me real things in front of my face.
My thoughts are:
A.) Jesus needs to come back down on Earth ASAP and make this world a better place.
B.) People need to WAKE UP to REALITY about whats going on.
C.) A REVOLUTION needs to happen in this city.
D.) I need to take STAND and do something about it.
*If you picked "D" you are right. :)
I could go on and on about this but I will stop now. I am in this city for a reason. In a million years I would never choose to be in this city let alone live here.
The first week I was here I was literally scared out of my mind. Everything bad and evil was happening. I am like I do not know if I want to be in this town anymore.
There's break ins.
4 cops car with sirens on chasing someone or what not.
The cops are always busting someone.
There's firetrucks and ambulances going off every 10secs it feels like.
There's a lot of homeless people.
These people who talk to themselves and are in another world b/c they are a drug addict.
There's people would come on private property and do what they want to.
There's tons of action.
The list goes on and on.
This city is similar to Stockton or downtown Sacramento.
When I go back to Rocklin I am so grateful and appreciative to be living in Rocklin.
I was jokingly telling my mom we need to have a reality TV show while we are here with everything going on and happening. I mean every little thing I hear at night I literally get up and look threw the windows. During the day I am good but at night not so much. It takes a while to get adjusted to this city.
Back to the reason why I wrote this blog in the first place is that I was like okay God what in the world am I doing here for? What is my purpose being here? God is like start a Christian Non-Profit Organization to help the homeless and the rest will come to you. In the process of doing that now.
God is teaching me not to worry about all the worldly things and to keep my eyes on him and what he wants me to do. I literally find something new everyday and figure out how to make it better. For now I am keeping my eyes on God and doing what he tells me to do. My eyes wonder to the worldly things a lot but I tell myself God is in control and knows what hes doing. I need to focus on God and what I need to do and less about the worldly things.
Some people, family, and friends are going to say to me "YOU CAN'T DO IT" and I am simply going to SAY "WATCH ME FIND A WAY". I got told you CAN'T do anything my whole life. Saying "YOU CAN'T" to me just "MOTIVATES" me even more to reach that dream(s). It doesn't hurt to try and see where something goes.
My breaking heart for the homeless,
Rachel<3
P.S. I have a burning passion to give back to this world and make a difference in others lives. I dream dreams everyday to make the world a difference and get the community involved to make a difference. It's time to put my dreams into action and make them become reality. I have a heart to change this world one person at a time. It takes someone like me to be courageous and stand up and make a difference in this world. It's time to step out of my comfort zone and be faithful to God. I'm ready to go on the roller-coaster of my life to accomplish these dreams I have. I am going to do something about it and get AWESOME results out of it.
