The other day I went up to a local Christian
bookstore and saw a Honk If You Love Jesus
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 that
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! Why, 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. Then 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...why, even he was enjoying this
religious experience!
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 I 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!
