Dear
Grand-daughter,

The other day I went up to our local Christian book
store 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, am I 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!

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! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!'


What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!

Everyone started
honking!

I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at
all those 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 young teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant.

He
said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something.

Well, I
have never met anyone from Hawaii , so I leaned out the window and gave him the
good luck sign right 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
carsand 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 at all my brothers and sisters, and drove on through the
intersection.

I noticed that I was the only car that got through the
intersection before the light changed again and 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 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!!

Will write again
soon,







Love,
Grandma
