it is that time of year, thought this might help someone
THE
SNEEZE
I
think this is awesome!!!
They walked in tandem,
each of the ninety-two students filing into the
already crowded auditorium. With their rich maroon
gowns flowing and the traditional caps, they looked
almost as grown up as they felt.
Dads swallowed hard behind
broad smiles, and Moms freely brushed away tears.
This class would NOT pray
during the commencements, not by choice, but because
of a recent court ruling prohibiting it.
The principal and several
students were careful to stay within the guidelines
allowed by the ruling. They gave inspirational and
challenging speeches, but no one mentioned divine
guidance and no one asked for blessings on the
graduates or their families.
The speeches were nice,
but they were routine until the final speech received
a standing ovation.
A solitary student walked
proudly to the microphone. He stood still and silent
for just a moment, and then, it
happened.
All 92 students, every
single one of them, suddenly SNEEZED !!!!
The student on stage
simply looked at the audience and
said,
'GOD BLESS
YOU'
And he walked off the
stage...
The audience exploded into
applause. This graduating class had found a unique way
to invoke God's blessing on their future with or
without the court's approval.
Isn't this a wonderful
story? Pass it on to all your
friends.........and
GOD BLESS
YOU!!!!
This is a true story; it
happened at the University of Maryland
