You can't see the world from their perspective without bringing yourself vibrationally closer to that reality. If you are empathizing with them to the point of feeling as desperate and hopeless as they do, you are doing them AND you a disservice.
Instead, view them as the powerful creators they are. The best thing you can ever do is visualize them as happy, abundant, and aware of their own infinite nature. When you are seeing something that makes you feel joy and appreciation, those emotions indicate that you are in a state of connection with source energy. From that place of connection, you are wise, you have insight you wouldn't have otherwise. From THAT place, you are of benefit to all things you place your attention on.
On the other hand, if you are feeling desperate, hopeless, depressed, and frustrated (which could be caused by empathizing with the tribulations of the homeless), you can't offer any action that will help them long term. From a place of disconnection, your intentions are frustrated and negated.

No, the universe responds to "intent/desire/thought/belief" (and thoughts are simply the shape your consciousness is in at any given point in time). Your emotions indicate what vibration of thought you are putting out. They are vibrational indicators. When you feel good, it means you are not offering thoughts of resistance, when you feel bad, it means the thoughts you are currently offering are NOT in alignment with the way source energy (which is pure positive energy) is seeing the world. This means you are offering contradictory thought to your desires. Resistance is always perceived as negative emotion. And the lack thereof is always perceived as positive, good feeling emotions like love, joy, and appreciation.
