My dearest Cousin,
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 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 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!
