She writes:<\/p>\n<p>\tDear Grand-daughter,<\/p>\n<p>\tThe other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a<br \/>\n\t&#8216;Honk if you love Jesus&#8217; bumper sticker ..<\/p>\n<p>\tI was feeling particularly sassy that day because I had just come from<br \/>\n\ta thrilling choir performance, followed by a thunderous prayer<br \/>\n\tmeeting.<\/p>\n<p>\tSo, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.<\/p>\n<p>\tBoy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed.<\/p>\n<p>\tI was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in<br \/>\n\tthought about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn&#8217;t notice that<br \/>\n\tthe light had changed.<\/p>\n<p>\tIt is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn&#8217;t<br \/>\n\thonked, I&#8217;d never have noticed. I found that lots of people love<br \/>\n\tJesus!<\/p>\n<p>\tWhile I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy,<br \/>\n\tand then he leaned out of his window and screamed, &#8216;For the love of<br \/>\n\tGod!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8216;Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!&#8217; What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!<\/p>\n<p>\tEveryone started honking!<\/p>\n<p>\tI just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all<br \/>\n\tthose loving people.<\/p>\n<p>\tI even honked my horn a few times to share in the love!<\/p>\n<p>\tThere must have been a man from Florida back there because I heard him<br \/>\n\tyelling something about a sunny beach.<\/p>\n<p>\tI saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger<br \/>\n\tstuck up in the air.<\/p>\n<p>\tI asked my young teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant.<\/p>\n<p>\tHe said it was a Hawaiian good luck sign. Well, I have never met<br \/>\n\tanyone from Hawaii, so I leaned out the window and gave him the good<br \/>\n\tluck sign right back.<\/p>\n<p>\tMy grandson burst out laughing. Why even he was enjoying this<br \/>\n\treligious experience!!<\/p>\n<p>\tA couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that<br \/>\n\tthey got out of their cars and started walking towards me.<\/p>\n<p>\tI bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is<br \/>\n\twhen I noticed the light had changed.<\/p>\n<p>\tSo, grinning, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, and drove on<br \/>\n\tthrough the intersection.<\/p>\n<p>\tI noticed that I was the only car that got through the intersection<br \/>\n\tbefore the light changed again and felt kind of sad that I had to<br \/>\n\tleave them after all the love we had shared.<\/p>\n<p>\tSo I slowed the car down, leaned out the window and gave them all the<br \/>\n\tHawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away. Praise the Lord<br \/>\n\tfor such wonderful folks!!<\/p>\n<p>\tWill write again soon,<\/p>\n<p>\tLove, Grandma<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on June 17, 2014, 12:42 pm<\/p>\n<div>Loved it.
