Graduating Class
Posted by: root <root@...>
already crowded auditorium. With 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 he delivered his speech ... an astounding sneeze.
The rest of the students rose immediately to their feet, and in unison they
said, "GOD BLESS YOU." The audience exploded into applause. The graduating
class found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or
without the court's approval.
WHERE THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY!
God Bless those students
God Bless America
