VALEDICTORIAN SPEECH



OPENING PRAYER
Father, I have made the choice to trust You entirely with my problems. I will be letting go and giving ALL control to You. I am willing to live through this difficult time, in Your love, in Your strength and in Your infinite wisdom and power. I thank You that these very circumstances, which I find so difficult to bear, are being used by You to provide me with blessings beyond my imagination, regardless of how things may look, feel, or seem. Lord I Thank You for freeing me from my prison of worries and concerns. This battle now belongs to You and You alone to do with what you will. Father, I love you with all my heart and soul and mind and strength. I know that all things work together for the good of those who love you and I cannot wait to see the end result. In the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Imagine God Our Father giving the Valedictorian Speech to a large group of graduates who are ready to go out into the world for the first time ...

VALEDICTORIAN SPEECH
My children suffer due to lack of knowledge." The way you think, the choices you make and the actions you take will determine your future. There are two things you must know before you go out into this dangerous world:

# 1 ... BE LIKE ME
"You must strive to be perfect in this imperfect world. You are my children and I am so proud of you. Please try your best to be holy like I am holy. Please understand that it's for your own good. I want you to be 'Like Father Like Child'. When others see you, I want them to know you are my child by your love for others, by the fruit you produce and by the light you give off.  If you pursue being like me, the joys in your life will be exceeded abundantly beyond all that you can ask for or can even think of. When you accept Jesus, you become heirs to my Kingdom, you will be given many gifts, you will be treated as royalty. See yourself as a Prince or a Princess NOT as a Pauper when it comes to mental health, physical health, financial health and spiritual health. I am your King and I will provide all of these things.

# 2 ... SHARE MY LOVE AND BLESSINGS WITH OTHERS
Be just and impartial and show no favoritism. Remember that whether you steal from a poor person or a rich person, it is still stealing. Jesus said that you don't have to kill someone to break the law. All you have to do is think badly about someone, whether that someone is a good person or a bad person. YOU MUST KNOW that any bad thought or any bad act originating from you will result in a multitude of bad actions to be directed against you. However, any good thought or any good act brings an abundance of goodness back to you. You reap what you sow. So, strive to be holy and only think of and do good things for your own safety, benefit and well being. Reflect the light of Jesus, who is the Light of this World. Darkness cannot exist where there is light.

Do not damage anyone's reputation and do not profit by your neighbor's loss. Do not hate anyone. Do not look for vengeance or have resentment. You must forgive others in order for you to be forgiven.
But most of all, love your neighbor as I love you. Others will know you are my children and living in my kingdom by the way you love each other. Your life and the life of your children and family will be filled with so much Grace and My blessings.

If you do what is holy then you and your family will be safe and your lives will be filled with many blessings. If you do the unholy things of this world then you will not be safe and you will be controlled by your desires allowing the enemy to steal your joy, kill your hopes and to destroy your life.

Always remember that you are my children and that you are NOT of this world. So GO and I will endorse your Holiness because you have chosen to do your best to be perfect and holy like ME. I have spoken, your Father in Heaven who loves you beyond your understanding, who forgives you and always wants the best for you. Always pray in the Name of Jesus.

So, here is the purpose for your life: Be like Me and share My love with each other.
GO my children, please be careful and know that I AM always with you ... 24x7."
