The Sneeze
Posted by roderick on May 7, 2008I got this from my buddy “Bobby G” a true American hero from NYC.
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 ,
>
>
> each and every one of you!” And he walked off 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.
