Graduation Speech -- Graduation Speech, Commencement Address
I stand before you tonight because of dear spot that was given to me and displayed in its purest, sacrificial form. This evening, I would like to share with you how that lie with has changed my life. When my parents enrolled me at Milkins Academy 13 geezerhood ago, they recognized the fact that the nurture of a Christian education is far greater than a new(a) house or car. The material possessions that they flow forfeited through with(predicate) the years have each(prenominal)owed me to remain in an environment in which I arsehole see Christ lived out every day. For the sacrificial manage that my parents have displayed, together with the parents of all my class members, I am exceedingly grateful. The teachers hither at Milkins display love to us students as well. Whether in get a little extra math help before a test or receiving a needed hug after position class, we experience the love our teachers have for us. Thank you, teachers all of you. We know that you everlast ingly pray for us, encourage us and reprimand us when we need it. Your love, humility and desire to know Christ have been a brilliant mannikin of what you long to see demonstrated in our lives. God is at work in you, and we pray that everyone here is able to see Christ in us as well. However, although the love of our parents and teachers has greatly influenced our lives, their love is insignifi natest compared to the love of the One who first loved us. He is the source of all unbent love and is the ultimate example of sacrifice. One of my favorite passages of Scripture is Romans 51-8, which states, Therefore, nefariousnessce we have been justified through confidence, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this bedeck in which we now stand. And we rejoice in th... ...blameless died,And through it all was tested, shunned, and tried.His life on earth, as all, was but a breath,Yet lived he true until his awful remai nderAnd after, for although he was but man,He was held in Gods almighty plan,And was truly God in forgiving formBy his death the temple veil was torn.And he calls us all to follow him,Turning from a life of vile sinTo perfection by a God all pureHis grace is that of which we can be sure.Blameless Jesus lived and blameless died,And he can be forevermore our Guide.For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Thank you all for approach shot tonight, and have a lovely evening.
