"I have a FRIEND named Ginger, she's on her way" How sweet and pure is that!
@Maritza Piccarillo Dude comeon man... dont be like this.
@Maritza Piccarillo sounds like thats how your mom felt about you ??
@@alicebarraza-robinson2103 👏👏👏
@Maritza Piccarillo stop being so hateful. this video is about love, not hatred.
I’m the thousand like
I'm so proud of her for deciding she didn't like something about herself and changing it. That's not easy to do
Jill Seufert Very admirable
Love this story. BLESSING to you and family.
Jill Seufert that is so true!!!
Homeless man wears polo Ralph shirt
Home owner normal clothes 😋😂
@ I understood the message no need to tell me thnx anyways
I appreciate her husband for he support
Nahhh
Awesome guy
his Walk holy Johnny
@sonia achieng lmao that's what I thought
Venturing into the Brine I haven’t been indoctrinated. I had an old buddy who was like that and they correlated in my mind. Can you really say it isn’t somewhat of an odd situation? They made an article about it so it clearly isn’t regular
"Life is messy, but if you're gonna love other people, you're gonna have to step into their mess."
I love this quote.
I don't, because it's the truth.

I love it too that's amazing
Love it too.
YES

When he said “When are you coming back?” My heart....😭😭
Tina Parks I cried at that part too! Such a beautiful story of compassion I cried all the way through! Victor is such a darling so happy for him ,he’s safe and comfortable now ❤️🙏🏽❤️God’s divine intervention 🙏🏽♥️🙏🏽
I KNOOOOOOOW! 😭😭. I think he has down syndrome :(((( , poor thing.😱
My grandma saw a homeless guy and after passing him for one week she asked him why he was living on the street he said his aunt kicked him out her house he have no where to go his mom was away.....my grandma took him off the street to live with her... everyone was upset .....after some months she got contact with his mother in the US and two years later he went to meet his mom....his mom was sending money every month to support her son and her sister and they was not doing it...she didn't even know he was on the streets ....it ended up a blessing for my grandma and her whole family....
What a lovely story 🙏🏽
r/thathappend
@@callmesanti710 how do you know it didn't happen?
Great story
🙏❤️
Its crazy she admitted what 90% of people think when they see homeless people. she acknowledged it and made her a better person.
Not so true! I know a lot of people with even a lot of money who hate homeless people and see them as junks and so on. Not all people are like Ginger the angel.
Ginger is what is good in this world
she did something good for one person... she didn't know the story behind... why did she change and what reason was it for... was for being better person or something more selfish??? i am one who will help people in need and i have done it, even when i could of been kick thrown out... i took the risk in fact the property manager... that used to work here... said i had golden heart. the young lady i help with her baby.. took in... also stated that i do a lot for others before myself. I have also had to put my foot down with my ex. and asking for money all the time. personally i don't have money anyways on me so trying to save.
i like blondes personally
She did something most people could or would not do
Christopher or Chris/Critter C what is selfish about bringing a homeless man into your home
@@critter2 you sound selfish
Realising you're doing something wrong, stopping and saying NO, THIS HAS TO CHANGE is, to me, one of the most admirable things that a person can do. Props to her
This was a nice thing to do for another person. Hopefully you never become homeless or hungry. It's really scary out there in this world. I'm glad this man got some help.
Agree.
She is so right... Life is MESSY..
Wow! Tears are trying to swell up in my eyes. May God continue to bless all that she puts her hands to do.
Claude Gunn ♥️
When he said why he was homeless, my eyes welled up.🥺 I'll never understand how anyone can abandon a child. When the Lord called upon her to reach out to this sweet man, the response was absolutely beautiful! 💙🙏🏻💜
Amen
Good job award to the husband also for not being the typical jealous type who’s insecure about another man being around 👏🏼
Update: she ended up divorcing the husband and marrying this guy
something like this isn't ever heard of, boy she must have a heart of GOLD, God Bless Her Family
This is literally what i want to do sometimes with homeless people. I actually i did do this once with a homeless girl! I brought her to my home and turned out she was really crazy and she had to go! she went off on me for trying to get her help I offered her to stay in my place till we got her in a program but she wanted to continue being an alcoholic. I'm glad this man was willing to work and I would love to help someone who wants to be helped!. God bless this woman and her husband ❤
Yes, unfortunately some homeless people are crazy and liars. I bought a homeless young girl (looked around 20) dinner and she said she was trying to get back home which was about an hour away (fishing for money) I told her I would happily give her a ride as I didn't have anything to do that evening anyway. She starts stuttering and quickly changed the subject. She looked very annoyed as she walked away from me, no doubt because I didn't give her money.
Most homeless people are homeless for a reason. Drugs , felonies, or mental disorders. I always give them food because I know if I gave them money, they're on their way to get drugs. I would never invite them into my home. Too many things could go wrong.
My grandma took one off the streets to her home it ended up a blessing ....
Darlene Candelaria help me
Darlene Candelaria I’m glad u tried to help but I’m glad u got rid of her and nothing bad happened to u
This is exactly what Christ asks of us. Stepping outside our comfort zones to care for those in need. Bless you Ginger for taking this gentleman under your wing. I can't imagine the pain he's suffered being abandoned. God bless. Matthew 25:40 The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.'
You and your husband are his angels. Bless you both!
The world needs more people just like her.
Steve Hartman is the hero we need but don't deserve.
Imagine what the homeless man's mom would be thinking after watching this video
“My friend ginger” IM CRYING RIGHT NOW
Good karma going to hug u girl!!! Nice. ❤
@1:05 saying he had a friend. It’s just so sweet and wholesome ❤️
It is so many homeless people in Houston. I definitely felt compelled a few times. I bought food for homeless people and like she did build relationships with many.
U never know which one of those ppl will turn their life around and meet u later in life. U might feel ur helping them at first, but they are unconsiously helping you to be a better person.
This Kind of Love can save your life too.
Thank you for not not constantly putting out stories of fear, violence, and depression.
Good news stories are truly refreshing.
God works in mysterious ways. He really used Ginger and her husband in a mighty way.God bless !
That homeless man had a nice heart .
I tried this but most of the homeless people turned out to be alcholic and not passionate about changing
It’s mostly because they need help and treatment. Alcohol is a real disease, it can make someone homeless and yet they still continue to drink. Professional help is one of the only ways.
@@CJ-rc5ru unfortunately if they don't want to change professional help.. Well doesn't help.
@@americanroger9285 It's a same with smoking... Some of my friends get into quit smoking program and didn't work. I didn't join any program and been smoking free for 8 years and never looked back.
You have to have a strong will... Like any other addiction quit smoking, feels like your body is broken and you're going sick... just keep continue.
“ i have a friend named ginger and shes on her way” my heart 🥹🥹
I love that lady, heart of gold!
So glad she came around I used to make food bags and hand them out I took the time to talk to some of the people I encountered and not all of them were addicts or alcoholics I really despise people that stigmatize and judge when they have no clue whatsoever about that person’s circumstances.
I appreciate her honesty and change of her heart sometimes you don’t understand so you’d prefer to not get involved but everyone has a story to tell
I appreciate how honest she was about being rude. Most people are but don't admit it. She did and she changed for the better. She saved someone's life.
I wish there were more good people like this. The world would be so awesome if we all just helped one another. I love stories like this.
God works in mysterious ways. He really used Ginger and her husband in a mighty way.
He looks so much happier and healthier. Quarantine got me crying 😭😭❤️❤️
People CAN change if they're willing to open their hearts and take the chance.
She is so sweet to take in a complete stranger and changed his life. We need more people like this
I love the change in her The Almighty was working
She is so awesome. God knew she was the right person to help him on this Earth, and showed her how wonderful she is and how great her heart is. She was blessed with a great husband that listens to her and couldn’t say no. I’m glad he thought about it and decided to let her help him. I love this story. God bless her and her husband!!!
There are still good folks out there....
““The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”

Thank you for being a Human Being to another Human being.
Alberto Garcia God loves you.
Nobody Smith God loves you
@Alberto Garcia That's irrelevant. Jesus was a radical who cared for people in chains and worked against the government to help criminals and the poor. It's a good thing to follow (if Christians actually followed it). Let people talk about good messages like this one.
Wow! I'm blown away. I think of myself as a compassionate person but I'm nothing compared to Ginger Sprouse. I bet she's secured a place in heaven already.
It is awesome, but please don't be decieved, good works don't get us to heaven. We get to heaven by asking God into our hearts and forgive us of our sins.
My heart is exploding from all the kindness 😍😍
"If you're going to LOVE other people, you have to be willing to step into their MESS." ----- Whew.... that is GOLDEN. 💛💛💛💛💛💛
Ginger, you really did clean up your messy life that you thought was nice and tidy. You have demonstrated living life on a higher level. Blessings! ☮️💓☮️
I could never do it like her. She's my new hero.
🌸🌻🌺❤👼This is a beautiful story. I am touched. I can honestly say that I would have been afraid to let a stranger in my home. There is something kind about this man's disposition that I pick up. It doesn't seem angry, bitter, or crazy. It seems to be a help me, lost, give me a chance kind of spirit. He looks happy and better! What a great couple!
I can only say thank you. It's not easy to allow a homeless person into your family especially if you have children.
But I've met wonderful homeless people and there are people who really want to get their lives together they just don't have the resources and I was surprised that this man didn't have any addictions he must have found some way to cope with that.
Maybe he had a positiveness that allowed him to flourish. I found when I worked with the homeless a lot of homeless people their lives were turned around because they found Christ.
Remember I grew up in the inner cities I worked with homeless shelters with my church and a lot of times we would eat there Mom did the best she could but we always would run out of food at the end of the month and my mom was the assistant manager at the shelter when our church would go.
I remember talking to the pastor's wife and I'll never forget what she told me and how she met her husband.
She was a teenager who had been abused at home and she wound up on the streets and she of course got into prostitution of course she was sexually molested before that and her husband met her while she was still a prostitute.
I remember when she told me I wept and wept and wept I was 16 years old. Ironically the pain I felt for her it was actually coming from me which always made me wonder if I had some connection that I couldn't remember at the age of 25 I finally understood why.
Seven abusers male and females under the ages of 25.
Black white hispanic the only abuser I never came across was an Asian guy.
My point is You weep for those who have experienced suffering especially if you've experienced it even though you have no memory.
I'm now 42 I'm thankful for the healing that Christ has brought through counseling EMDR therapy inner healing and deliverance but I'm still single.
I'm a self-supported Christian missionary serving in Taiwan please forgive my grammar I'm recovering from a broken shoulder and using Auto dictation.
I've been blessed to serve people over the last 15 years jumping into their lives mess and all helping them the lot navigate the darkness of sin at the hands of other people.
I've been able to see them heal emotionally physically and spiritually as I've been trained in counseling inner healing and deliverance.
I only say this to give the glory to Jesus Christ I'm so often Americans are not allowed to acknowledge especially living in Democratic states.
I have more religious freedom in Taiwan when I do in America
Fantastic couple
Love from Saudi Arabia
Takes a big person to know theres something wrong with themselves and to change that. Beautiful story.
Ginger, I am sooo proud of how you opened your heart to learn and grow. Kudos to your husband as well. Much love to you ALL
Wow,
God bless you Lady,and your husband
"Life is messy, if your gonna love other people your gonna have to be willing to step into their mess" What an amazing quote.
She said, "Life is messy, and if you want to help somebody yu have to step into their mess." Wow. How right is that? great!!!
OUTSTANDING
She’s a brave, kind and intelligent human being 💐beautiful inside and out 👍
I lived there and saw that guy all the time. I wanted to help but I was small and didn't know what I could do. I bought him bask in robins though. He is actually so sweet
she has a golden heart
I'm teary after watching this!! May more of us be willing to step into the messy to find the blessing.
what an amazing family blessed you mam your kindness change the world.
Good for you Ginger, Buckets of Blessings
deff gotta give the husband props for being so understanding and supporting his wife.
every single person is a god gift.we lend the hands to the one in needs mostly for better life...
God bless you Ginger and your husband too.
give these people a medal or something, that's so freaking nice
I am so PROUD of her!
That act of kindness changed his life
God bless you Ginger We need more of your kind, around.
Such honesty in her words, she could've played it off as she has always been some compassionate giving person and I would've bought it.
Cheering out loud! What an amazing thing to do - so inspirational.
This channel has had me crying for the past couple of days. It's so sad and beautiful at the same time. Human kindness is my drug.
Bless u Ginger & ur husband for trusting and understanding.
You were an angel sent in disguise rescuing this dear man. Thk u
thats a really nice story, a good woman there!
Beautiful " God blessed you.
Bless your heart Ginger
Victor has such a warm sincere face.. Hes a good man and will reward these people with what he achieves..
Here i am, again, binge watching these heartwarming "Steve Hartman" Stories.
And i am quite sure i did not put any onions in my lunch today.
Wow, good people is still around doing good in the world. Many thank to this lady and her husband . God bless them both.
Ginger, Victor, and Dean, I hope you will see this. I have watched many videos about love and caring and have even commented on a few. Your video touched me very deeply and I needed to try to let you know through a comment here that you are beautiful. Thank you. I don't want to obfuscate by writing too much, just thank you and may the Good Lord continue to bless all three of you.
I appreciate the change,it's not everyone's decision to be homeless and it's hard to get a job,as a kid I wasn't exactly homeless but I was living in a shelter for almost 2 years and before that,going house to house staying a few days for a year even sleeping in a car a few times,that life was so hard because as a kid,I couldn't do anything and no one would help me,that's why now that I made it out of that mess I get frustrated when the homeless don't accept money,I wouldn't wish it upon anyone and from what I learned some things are never in your control,to anyone looking to help someone and they don't accept money ,take the time to talk with them as it would make them feel a whole lot better
Btw I spent my whole middle school years homeless and after some kids found out,I was bullied but that didn't stop me from becoming a better person,I wish that everyone would just take the time and have a talk because the world is harsh
So wonderful to have Faith in human beings
This is so beautiful!!!
Noone is better than anyone else stay humble and help when you can it could be your life that changes forever for the better. Hats off to this lady and her fanily for hshowing first hand what it is lile to be an American and a human
God bless you and your family wonderful lady! Thanks.
Ginger should run for Congress or President. We need more people like you in this world.
Why would she run for president?
Beautiful!
Came here from “a Facebook message that sparked hope” and this is truly amazing as well. The world would be a better place if people helped each other.
What a glorious wonderful beautiful amazing woman she is! Unbelievable. It’s hard to believe she found a connection in her heart to this man she did not know. I will always remember her!
Wow this story brings tears to your eyes God is good he's everywhere keep him on your mind he will make a way .
Awww, It's like watching Leigh Anne Touhy and Michael O'her from the movie 'Blindside'...how sweet!
Really touched me. See had eyes to see and ears to hear. Wish more people would look beyond themselves. Might change this cruel old world. Bless you all.
This is what makes our country amazing 🙏
Wahooo.. she just challenged me to get to know their stories. She is super awesome. Wish her lots of blessings
I cried watching this. This is so sweet. THIS IS WHAT AMERICA IS PEOPLE, AT IT'S HEART.
What a beautiful story, of love and compassion.❤️
What a beautiful blessed story and how God can get the glory and touch both lives hearts 💕
heart of gold right here awesome
It takes a LOT to bring someone home even for a day. I hope heaven drops tons of blessings on this wonderful family.
