“Blessings to All Americans Working Hard Together”

May 26th “Blessings to All Americans Working Hard Together”

“God Bless America”

To celebrate “Memorial Day”… it is only fitting that we hear a song or two that makes for all of us, to be PROUD to be living in this Country where you you are Blessed and also are always giving Prayers and Praises to our ALMIGHTY Creator!

So having just given that thought, to start with today…

Have you ever heard Kate Smith, sing, “God Bless America?”

When they first introduced this song to AMERICA… it just seem to be, the medicine that all of America needed then, and with the other WWII songs that we all were singing… as this song is as a Prayer to our Almighty Creator asking HIM, to bless all of America and all the people that are in need of HIS help, during those WAR Years!

The timing was just right as we, the American people… were in the WAR and in much need of HIS help now and forever, so from our Almighty Creator we needed, HIS HELP in those drastic days and times of WAR, way back then.

It just seems that “Kate Smith’s” voice was just so correct and right … just exactly, the one with lots of volume to call … as in a Prayer … for all of us to HIM for Help!

Kate Smith… she could sing, I know… as do all Americans that have heard her sing … and we all know that our ALMIGHTY CREATOR heard her sing for all of us, and HE did answer as we Americans, are now, so happy for the good results… with an ending of WWII.

At 12 noon, on KMOX 1120 radio dial, and that is everyday our radio is on, and… I gave it all that I could… to sing along, for all of the world to hear.

While we were at war, I also did my small part, I would get going and out with other neighbor kids… we would go down my block and then go down other kids block, and we would also go through the alleys with my wagon, as each of us kids had their very own wagon to fill up, as we were collecting old newspapers and magazines, all for the War effort, and any old kind of metal and also old coffee cans filled with grease.

Also since you were to save and we did learn to do without a lot of things, as we did not have Grocery stores as we have today.

My DAD added a swing-type door to the front bottom side of our garage and he also added an enclosed area in the back yard for the chickens to be outside in the yard, weather permitting … and there were small box areas for each chicken to lay their eggs and then for us to collect those good eggs.

The most important area in our back yard, Daddy planted some of the vegetables that we all like to eat, and then we also had a most wonderful Victory Garden.

It seems to me, and as I can remember all of our neighbors who were doing the same things or at least … almost as much as we were doing, too!

Also, we were able to exchange foods that were grown with our neighbor who just may have had too much of something, but… would like to try something different… and or with another very close and near by neighbor who was growing, maybe something new and or different and also maybe had just a tad too much!

We all did our part every day, for years.

I know that we are all proud and very Thankful for the chance to do our parts in helping our AMERICA… stay strong and always able to help others!

Thanks to You, Almighty Yahweh, for seeing, hearing and putting an end to WWII in 1945.
