Dear Editor,
God is in control. Please help the people to rise, they are hurting.
I am one who is hurting for more than a year. I know what it is to be homeless and like I say to the people and Government, turn away from the things and help the people before it is too late.
Turn to God. Do as Jacob did. He would not let God go until God blessed him so he knew what to do, help his people.
All Ministers, get together and help your people. We don’t need flags or roads, we need schools, homes, food, jobs and people’s piece of mind. You know what it is to not have a place to sleep or food to feed your children. What it is to only have power.
Put God in the midst of everything. We are in big trouble I give my life in God’s hands and I would like the people, before they think to do everything, trust in God. Challenge Him and He will see us through.
It is very hard to see all you worked for is gone and the Government is out there breaking up instead of getting together and helping the people.
Lord, when is this going to stop? It should have been all hands on deck not the other way around like again I would say this is all about color or power.
Please, in God’s name, Government, stop calling names and help the people, the elderly, the family who are homeless. Call for a day of prayer. Call all the churches in and the people of St. Maarten to come and pray so the Lord can take control over our lives before we have something worse than Hurricane Irma or Maria.
I am begging for a home because I was homeless, but my Government didn’t help after 45 years I gave my whole life to.
Now the rest of my life belongs to the Lord. I am holding onto His hand. He will see me through. And, people of St. Maarten, trust in God.
I am asking again for the Government to please help the people who can’t help themselves like me who can’t help myself.
Hold onto God and don’t let go.
