Dear Friend,

The other day I went up to a local Christian bookstore and saw a
bumper sticker. I was feeling particularly
sassy that day because I had just come from
a thrilling choir performance, followed by a
thunderous prayer meeting, so I bought the
sticker and put it on my bumper.

Boy, I'm glad I did! What an uplifting experience followed!
I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in
thought about the Lord and how good He is...and I didn't
notice that the light had changed. It is a good thing someone
else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have
noticed! I found that LOTS of people love Jesus!

While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like
crazy, and then he leaned out of his window and screamed,
"For the love of GOD! GO! GO! Jesus Christ, GO!"

What an exuberant cheerleader he was for
Jesus! Everyone started honking! I just
leaned out of my window and started
waving and smiling at all these loving
people. I even honked my horn a few times
to share in the love!

There must have been a man from Florida back there because I
heard him yelling something about a "sunny beach"... I saw another
guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the
air. I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant,
he said that it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.

Well, I've never met anyone from Hawaii, so I leaned out the window
and gave him the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out
laughing...he was enjoying this religious experience, too!

A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment
that they got out of their cars and started walking towards me. I
bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is
when I noticed the light had changed. So, I waved to all my sisters
and brothers grinning, and drove on through the intersection. I
noticed I was the only car that got through the intersection before
the light changed again and I felt kind of sad that had to leave them
after all the love we had shared, so I slowed the car down, leaned
out of the window and gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one
last time as I drove away.


Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!

Love,
Grandma
