Dedicated Christians who are not for sale;
Who are honest, sound-true to the heart's core;
Who condemn wrong in friend or foe, in themselves as will as others;
Whose conscience are steady as the needle to the pole;
Who will stand for the right if the heavens totter and the earth reels;
Who can tell the truth and stand by it;
Who neither brag nor run;
Who neither flag nor flinch;
Who can have courage without whistling for it, and joy without shouting to bring it;
Who have the current of everlasting life running deep, still and strong -
Who know their message and tell it, know their duty and do it, know their place and fill it -
Who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor.
Who are willing to eat what they have earned, and use what they have paid for.

But how does one wish on falling star? Once you see it, it's gone before the wish or prayer can be made! The answer is simple: meteor shower. That's how to get your wish. Mrs. Ann Hodges had a wish fall right into her lap. Sort of. In 1954 Mrs. Hodges was sleeping on the couch when a 8 1/2 pound meteorite fell through her house and into her living room where it bounced off the radio and struck her left hip leaving her with a bruise.
