Paraphrase how Betty used to say the author's name and what it reminded the author of. Answer according to: Betty became my friend 32 years ago; the minute I met her. We were both in our early 30’s. We were both living in Pope Valley bringing up a family with children.
Betty was as loyal a friend as they come.
I laugh now at how Betty always said my name: Shelly.
She said my name with an exclamation point at the end of it- or two!!
She said it as though I was to come to attention; Ten-hut Shelly!
“Shelly” was said as though I was sleeping and was being called to awaken- like breakfast had been waiting a long time for me.
Betty…!! You rest in my heart. With faith I trust you have made a camp with Jesus.
The Church of Christ might be like plants. Some plants look different than others. In a lens view you can see many differences. Still, they all belong in the same place. Maybe Jesus made us all different so we can hold different qualities, views, perspectives and opportunities. I like to think we are all put here to prevail HIS will. I like to think we compliment each other like the plants that make a garden beautiful. These creations were made to be beautiful.
