GLENDA
Good Morning: Irving Berlin was born in Russia. He didn't remember much
about those years except watching his home burn to the ground and then his
family fleeing the country.
By the age of 8, his family had made their way to America. His father died,
and he had to drop out of school and help with family finances by delivering
papers. Despite all those setbacks, he became one of the most famous
songwriters of all times.......a lot of them patriotic.....because, you see, he
knew how great America was.
“God Bless America”, written in 1938, was an expression of his feelings
toward the country to which he owed all that he had and all that he was. He
also knew this country would not be great without God's blessings. Today
we need God more than ever. As you pray each day, ask that God would bless
America again. Have a wonderful day!
