The Pledge of Allegiance
Red Skelton tells the story of his teacher, Mr. Laswell, who explained the meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance, word by word.
"I've been listening to you boys and girls recite the Pledge of Allegiance all semester and it seems as though it is becoming monotonous to you. If I may, may I recite it and try to explain to you the meaning of each word?"
~I~
me, an individual, a committee of one.
~Pledge~
dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self pity.
~ Allegiance~
my love and my devotion.
~To the flag~
our standard, Old Glory, a symbol of freedom. Wherever she waves, there's respect because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts freedom is everybody's job!
~United ~
that means that we have all come together.
~States~
individual communities that have united into 48 great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose; all divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that's love for country.
~And to the republic~
a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.
~For which it stands, one nation~
one nation, meaning "so blessed by God"
~Indivisible~
incapable of being divided.
~With liberty~
which is freedom; the right of power to live one's own life without threats, fear or some sort of retaliation.
~And Justice~
the principle or quality of dealing fairly with others.
~For all~
which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine.
Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country and two words have been added to the
Pledge of Allegiance...
UNDER GOD
Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer and that would be eliminated from schools too?
God Bless America!
We interrupt this busy life to bring you an annoucement
I'm auditioning for the Symphony!
*aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
Prayers would be appreciated. I have 3 weeks to prepare and the first 2 are going to be VERY busy doing this other than getting ready. I'm also getting nervous already, and that bad. I don't do well when I'm nervous. It could be good in the fact that it will push me to practice more and be more efficient in my practicing, but it could also mess me up good.
So, anyway, back to your regularly scheduled busy life.

Little Friends
Sarah Beth absolutely LOVES her people! And she has lots of friends. At camp she had quite a lot of fun playing with Josh and Elisa. At some point she decided that Josh was younger than her and she needed to take care of him. She's just being her normal motherly self :) These pictures are all courtesy of Kristi.
Come to Jesus
Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!
Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain, so
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live!
And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall...so
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live!
Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live!
O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live!
And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus

Sing to Jesus

And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!
