ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
FOR THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17TH, 2020
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Today is also Citizenship Day which is also know as Constitution Day and is a federal holiday in the USA. On this day in 1787 the adoption of the United States Constitution was signed by delegates to the Constitution Convention in Philadelphia. This event commemorates all the people who are taking steps to be come a US citizen and those who became citizens by coming of age or naturalization.
To celebrate today, take a moment to reflect on the Constitution and what it means to be a U.S Citizen.
If you can’t see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Don’t interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties.
Abraham Lincoln
This grandson’s birthday is another occasion to light my candle and send out a birthday card full of love and best wishes. Most of my grandchildren live far away. Thankfully there are a few closer to home. I miss them so much but try to make up for that when I do get to see them.
His birthday is back to back with his mom so I imagine there has been a bit of celebration going on there at their house. No doubt, there is no lack of birthday cake.
I’m proud to say that I and my family are all US citizens. We were all born here in the good old USA. It’s good to have a constitution that protects the rights of our citizens too. Those wise men who put it together did us all a favor so that there is no doubt. We all have the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
I hope you all have a GREAT day. Happy Thursday!

Happy birthday to Ray of Sunshine! A fine looking young man. My dad became a citizen here after the time he had to wait. My mom said he was very excited about it.
