Matthew 24:40
I used to work for Covenant House, the largest provider of shelter and support services for homeless and runaway youth
in the country. I often heard our president, Sr. Mary Rose McGeady, share the quote below. Consider it not an indictment, but an exhortation.

"On the street I saw a small girl
cold and shivering wearing a thin dress,

about it?"
For a while God said nothing.
That night he replied
suddenly:
"I certainly did something
about it.
I made you."
