​With November just around the corner, we are approaching what may be the single most important election of our lifetime. 2020 has indeed brought with it many tests and challenges. We have endured a year of challenges and fear and are currently witnessing the dismantling of our nation from within. A rigorous dismantling of morals, values, and principles is at play, as well as a great division amongst friends and loved ones over political points of view.

Let us be reminded that The Constitution of the United States of America is the supreme law of the United States. Empowered with the sovereign authority of the people by the framers and the consent of the legislatures of the states, it is the source of all government powers, and also provides important limitations on the government that protect the fundamental rights of United States citizens.

“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

May we never forget the men and women who gave their lives so that we might be free. Let us follow the path of righteousness and let us always be a generous and morally and ethically upright nation. May we as a people, remove corruptness, ignorance, and hatred from our hearts, healing our thoughts and actions, to embrace all who cross our path.

May those in governing positions be guided by truth, using sound judgement to make good decisions. May we as a nation uphold our constitutional law, protecting us from our enemies and lift us to a state of power to do good in the world, as the leaders of a nation of peace that we are meant to be.

It is my wish for us to be the light of the world, bestowing the great spirit of courage and strength upon humankind to all the corners of the earth. Let us join in celebration, people from every tribe, tongue, and nation — to live our lives sovereign and free. These things I pray as we stand victorious, declaring truth and understanding for all of humanity upon this earth we call home.

God bless our country and her people. Watch over us and guide us to pursue liberty, justice, and equality for all.

Let Freedom Ring!
