The Sneeze
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 Chancellor 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 guid ance 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 .
I wish THIS one would take off and FILL the whole
Country!!!
