Betty



My church, Delaware Christian, served around our
community over the weekend.
Simple stuff, really.
Raking leaves, weeding, planting flowers, washing windows, stuff like that.
Some were helping at the Common Ground Free Store,
others fanned out to the homes of the elderly.
 My husband, another couple and I
went to Betty's home Saturday morning.
What a charming lady! 
Betty can't see well, so she appreciated our work around her yard.
But she also talked with us, laughed with us, and gave us gentle direction.
I really don't know who received the greater blessing on Saturday:
Betty ... or us.
I hope you get the chance to serve someone like Betty and
that it makes your day, as it did mine.
