State History Assignment 11#
What is a state seal? Not merely decorative symbols of statehood, the seals of state have been used to designate official acts of state through the ages, and their use is strictly prescribed by law. I think state seals are like snapshots of each state`s history
What is your state’s seal?
I`m copying this from a book:
The great seal of the state shall be 2 1/2 inches in diameter and shall consist of the coat of arms of the state within a circle having a diameter of 1 3/4 inches, surrounded by the words "THE GREAT SEAL OF THE STATE OF OHIO" in news gothic capitals.
The coat of arms of the state shall consist of the following device: a circular shield; in the right foreground of the shield a full sheaf of wheat bound and standing erect; in the left foreground, a cluster of 17 arrows bound in the center and resembling in form the sheaf of wheat; in the background, a representation of Mount Logan, Ross county, as viewed from Adena state memorial; over the mount, a rising sun three-quarters exposed and radiating thirteen rays to represent the thirteen original colonies shining over the first state in the northwest territory, the exterior extremities of witch form a semicircle; and uniting the background and the foreground, a representation of the Scioto river and cultivated fields....
When the coat of arms of the state is reproduced in color, the colors used shall be substantially the same as the natural color of the terrain and objects shown.
When was it established?
The Great Seal of the State of Ohio has undergone several design changes throughout its history. The rotunda of the Statehouse, for example, has a magnificent skylight with a handpainted version of a Seal that was designed in 1847. This version is similar to Ohio's present seal, but features a canal boat that is totally missing from today's seal.
In an attempt to reign in the design of the seal, the Legislature officially adopted Ohio's modern version in 1967, modifying it in 1996. The Scioto River flows across the center of the seal, separating cultivated fields from Mount Logan. Thirteen rays of a rising sun radiate over the mountain, symbolizing the 13 original colonies. In the foreground stands a sheaf of wheat, representing agriculture and bounty. Mimicking the sheaf of wheat is a bundle of 17 arrows, symbolizing Ohio as the 17th state to join the Union.What does it represent about your state?
The seal of the state of Ohio is a symbol of the authority and sovereignty of the state and is a valuable asset of its people. It is the intent of the state government to ensure that appropriate uses are made of the state seal and to assist the secretary of state in the performance of the secretary's constitutional duty as custodian of the seal.
Post a picture of your state seal
Is there something interesting about your state seal?Yes, I think that what it stands for is interesting:
The seal of the state of Ohio is a symbol of the authority and sovereignty of the state and is a valuable asset of its people. It is the intent of the state government to ensure that appropriate uses are made of the state seal and to assist the secretary of state in the performance of the secretary's constitutional duty as custodian of the seal.

Obey your parents
"Mia, I need you to take Adam to the park." said Mom
"Why can`t my twin Sam do it? I`m going to Lydia`s to help her pack for the sleep over." whined Mia
"Because Sam is going with your Dad to help him repair that pipe of Mrs.Waters that broke, its already been 2 days and your Dad should have repaired it when she asked, Understand?"
(sigh) "Alright. Hey Adam why don`t we play at Brian`s house?" said Mia. And Lydia`s house thought Mia as she happily putting Adam`s shoes on him Oh and I will not have to watch him, because Mrs.Gibson my Sunday school teacher has always loved watching him and I won`t need to explain everything to Lydia. Its perfect and Mom will not know a thing about it.
"Mom?"
"Yes, Mia?"
"I`m taking Adam for a walk, OK?"
"OK."
When they got to his friends house Adam ran inside shouting "Brian, I have come to play with you for 2 hours, Ok."
Lydia came running down the stairs saying as she ran "Hi Mia. Your Mom called to say you were not coming cause you had to watch Adam."
"Oh, Well I brought him to play with Brian. Because I wanted to see you but my Mom would not let me."
"Alright. We can get my Mom to watch them."
"Alright."
"Come on up stairs I don`t know what to wear to the sleep over. Is any one else going to come?"
"No and I know exactly what you should wear."
2 hours later
"Lets go and put your stuff up stairs." said Mia as they went inside her house.
"Mia, is that you?"
"Yeah, Mom?"
"You are grounded for 2 weeks, young lady."
"Why?"
"Because you lied to me and said you and Adam were going on a walk when you were going to Lydia`s house."
"How did you find out?"
"I had called Mrs.Gibson and told her you were not coming. So she just called me to say you guys were on your way here from her house."
Have you ever lied to your parents?
If you have ask their forgiveness and then ask God to forgive your sins.
Memorize:
Exodus 20:16
"You shall not Lie."

The candy world
You could sit in chairs made of cinnamon sticks at desks and tables made of hardened maple syrup while you read (and eat) books made of candied fruit. Sleep in a bed made of cheesecake with a pillow and blanket of sugared fruit. Living in a house made like a ginger bread house with doors made of star bursts, pillars made of licorice sticks, cotton candy clouds, windows of flat round lollipops and rock candy. Grass of shredded coconut colored green, trees of tootsie pop suckers.
Cars of candy bars and life savers, flowers out of carved suckers, a sun of a giant jawbreaker.
Side walks and roads of bumpy truffles, fresh water made out of blue gushers, towels made of
fruit roll-ups, hats made of carved marshmallows, walking sticks of peppermint sticks, powdered sugar snow, cup cake for flowers, tvs made of cake, bags and boxs made of fruit flavored yogurt, donuts are rafts and fun couches, pudding pools, carmel gates, toys made of taffy and milk shake ink, so what can I say except that we live in a candy world (and if I could I would have it that way, too.

Are you ready for Jesus?
Lillian smiled to herself as she thought of all the fun she was going have with Marianna, But
first she had to clean her room and Marianna was coming in 2 hours!
Finally Lillian was almost done all that was the desk. As she cleaned she saw a paper from her Sunday school teacher Mrs. Gibson. At the top it read ~Are you ready for Jesus?~.
Lillian thought - I better look at my life. Cause what if Jesus came today? I would not go to heaven. I`m gonna ask God to forgive my sins, come into my heart and help me.
Do you know Jesus as your Savior? If not go to a parent or church leader.
Do you know if your sins are forgiven? If not ask God to forgive your sins.
Memorize:
Revelations 22:7
"And behold, I am coming quickly.
Blessed is he who heeds the words
of the prophecy of this book."

Verses 4
Proverbs 15:3
The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good.
The Lord is watching over us, its great right?
Proverbs 3:3-6
3Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind around your neck, write them on the
tablet of your heart. 4Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and
man. 5Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
6In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
It sounds so pretty, i love it, do you?
Psalms 73:27-28
27Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you.
28But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the sovereign Lord my refuge;
i will tell of all your (God's) deed's.
I hope you liked the verses. Did you? If so please tell me.
