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 in 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 when he leaned out of
his window and screamed, "for the love of God, GO! 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. When 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.
