They walked in tandem, each of the ninety-three students filing into the already crowded auditorium. With rich maroon gowns flowing and the traditional caps, they looked almost as grown up as they felt. Dads swallowed hard being broad smiles, and moms freely brushed away tears. This class would not pray during the commencements...not by choice but because of the 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 named Fred walked proudly to the microphone. He stood still and silent for just a moment, and then delivered his speech...and 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. GOD BLESS!! Leave it to our youth to find a way!! |

  Amen!!! (big hugggssssss) Oh Miriam, this is absolutely wonderful, two months ago I graduated as valedictorian at Denver Academy, and in my speech while I did not sneeze, I truly believe it was Him who got me this far and I praised His name with a hosanna in my speech! (sigh)n This is excellent, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Miriam, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
