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 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 the graduating class found a unique way to invoke God's blessing on their future with or without the court's approval.
GOD BLESS YOU!
We teach people how to creatively engage non-believers and
anti-believers. Christians must be "As wise as serpents and gentle as doves". I fear many of us are "Mean as a snake and Dumb as a bird!"
Donate to us here so we can equip Christians around the world to defeat evil and replace it with God!
