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. 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,
and 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, grinning, 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. 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
