Zach Galifianakis Paid Old Homeless Woman's Rent for Decades & Spent Time with Her as She Lost Her Family
When Zach Galifianakis met Marie "Mimi" Haist, she was volunteering in a laundromat, surviving off tips left by customers. She was only allowed to sleep between the washers and dryers so customers couldn't see her.
Haist revealed that she became homeless after her divorce and had been on the streets for decades. Even though Galifianakis was an unknown comedian at the time, he found a comfortable apartment for her and paid her rent.
Galifianakis became a Hollywood star after filming alongside Bradley Cooper in the "Hangover" movie trilogy. However, his fame didn't affect his heart, and he remained down-to-earth.
He maintained a strong bond with Haist and even walked a red carpet with her as his date.
"If he's in town, he takes me ... I dress up nice, and a friend helps me with my makeup. It's fun, not something I've ever dreamed I'd experience. The limo takes me home afterward," revealed Haist.
Their friendship lasted nearly 27 years until she died at 96 years old.

Love & judgment cannot occupy the same place but a righteous judgment of the Lord has already been set in the standard of His Word. We should love Him so much to honor His Word in our lives to please Him, for it is that very line drawn in the sand we give account to by the blood of Jesus! It is the same line drawn that 5 of the 10 virgins held standard while the other 5 thought they were quite alright. Don't you just so value the accountability leadership He's placed in our lives? I sure do!

"...My son/daughter, do not scorn the Lord’s discipline or give up when he corrects you. For the Lord disciplines the one he loves and chastises every son/daughter he accepts. Endure your suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons/daughters. For what son/daughter is there that a father does not discipline? But if you do not experience discipline, something all sons/daughters have shared in, then you are illegitimate and are not sons/daughters. Besides, we have experienced discipline from our earthly fathers and we respected them; shall we not submit ourselves all the more to the Father of spirits and receive life? For they disciplined us for a little while as seemed good to them, but he does so for our benefit, that we may share his holiness. Now all discipline seems painful at the time, not joyful. But later it produces the fruit of peace and righteousness for those trained by it..." -Heb 12
