As a general rule, I feel sorry for them.
If they are on their own it's bad enough.
Whether there's a reason for homelessness like unstable factors of addiction or a mental disordees; or whether it's due to some bad situation like being evicted. I can't see homelessness in any positive light that shouldn't hold our compassion and sympathy.

It breaks your heart to see them. It also makes you thankful that it isn't you or one of your family. It can happen to anyone.
They can't claim benefits unless they have an address and they can't find a home unless they have money. All the homeless shelters are full.
It's a big problem. The people who care about them can only help a little because they haven't much money. More youngsters homeless than ever before.
There was a young girl homeless near where I worked. She was only 16 years old. I asked her what happened to make her homeless. She said "It's even worse at home."
Agreed spiritually but physically we could be while on this world.
All true Christians may be homeless one day.
