Fwd: Fw: The Sneeze



 

 

 

                     Subject: The Sneeze

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.
