• This Name Game

  Here is something that I think is real COOL.
  When I meet people I try to remember their names. Here are some cool names that I made out of a quest. Blessings to you.
  
  One day I came across a lady by the name Joy. I begin to notice some thing about this one JOY. When I saw Joy, she would always have a smile on her face. Wow! I had a thought. I can hug Joy.
  
  I never thought that I would meet Hope. Her grandma introduce me to her. I get a kick out of when I see Hope. She comes walking fast to greet me. She has a big smile on her face. I do too. I see HOPE coming.
  
  Then one day, I wondered if I could find Faith. I knew she would be around some where. But I did not know where to look. I did not give up hope.
  
  Along my journey, I met Grace. I never thought I would met Grace. But I am happy that I did. I can hug Grace too.
  
  One day I told Grace, I got to found Faith. I made that confession. I am going to find Faith. I never would have imagine that I would be on a quest to find Faith. She was around here somewhere.
  
  Then one day came along. There was a lady who was going to have a baby. She did not want to know what sex of the child would be until due day.
  
  I saw this lady and notice that said had her child. I thought not to ask what her daughter's name was.  I meet her daughter for the first time in October at October feast at WOLC. This lady told me her daughter's name. I did not catch the name.
  
  December came by. I had to ask this lady again. What was your baby daughter name? I thought it was Faith.  She was checking her daughter into the nursery She said there is Faith. I was so excited and happy. I found  FAITH.
  
  Now, I can see Joy, Hope, Grace and Faith when they come to church. I was so happy. One Sunday I saw Grace setting in the pew. I came up to you and told her the good news.
  
  I was so happy to share it with her. I said Grace! I found FAITH. Grace was rejoicing with me. She said that I was determined to find Faith.
  
  I mentioned to Grace. Only if I could get all you girls together. That would be something. Then one Friday night a friend and I was chatting about something. Then this man joined our conversation.
  
  Then all of a sudden this guy shows us a photo. He had twin daughters. Guess what their names are? Faith and Grace.  I found the Grace I knew. I told her about Faith and Grace were twins.
  
  Then on a Sunday, I saw Joy. I share the good news with her. Joy was coming with a smile on her face. I said Joy. I have some thing to share with you.
  
  That what I just shared with you. By the way, "Baby girl" Faith played Jesus in the first service on Christmas Eve  Service'08. That night I got to see baby Faith before the service.
  
  I spoke to Joy. I wonder if I can find Love. Another friend said maybe we can find Charity for you. There has to be Charity somewhere.
  
  Then one day I notice some one's last name. I saw Joy again. I shared that name with her. I told her that I found Lovejoy. She said that will work.
  
  I even run in to that person with the last name Lovejoy with her daughter. I shared this name game with her. Mrs. Lovejoy had a smile on her face.
  
  I thought that was fun to share. I do get a kick out of this name game. I would have never thought of searching of names like Joy, Hope, Grace, Faith and Lovejoy.
  
  Then again I have been. When I meet people I try to remember some things that has some association with the person's name. I had trouble remembering unique or names forgotten.
  
  Cheryline...as in Gasoline
  Pam...Pam spray.
  Diana... Princess Diana.
  Sharon...Rose of Sharon
  Carol...Christmas song
  
  Then there are names that I associate like this.
  I have met Sally. I have met Dick. I have met Jane.
  There was Ethel. There is a Fred.  (That's I Love Lucy.)
  I have met Tom. There is a Jerry   ( The Cartoon characters)
  
  There are some song names.
  Sherry, Peggy Sue, LeVera.
  
  Then there are names for male and female.
  Jerry, Chris, Kim, Stracey, Tracy
  
  Perhaps this name games is silly to some. But I can relate and recall peoples names this way. May we make the most out of life in Jesus' name Amen!
