Musings from Fr. Jack

This poem was included in a San Diego Union Tribune article on January 18, 2018. The title of the article was "Retired Prostitutes Home a Safe Haven." The author was Adriana Zehbrauskas of the New York Times. The home is called, Casa Xochiquetzal, in Mexico. A resident of this wonderful home wrote this poem. God, she says, was always there for her even in the bad times of her life. And God is always there for you too.     -Fr. Jack

I am the one who loves you
I am the one that listens to you when you are sad
I am the one that comforts you in your nights of pain
I am the one that warms you when you are cold
And even when you ignore meI’ll always be there for you.
