Got a letter from Grandma the other day.
She writes:
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.
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, with a real big grin,
I waved to all my sisters and brothers,
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!
Grandma
