Honk If You Love Jesus

The other day I 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! Why,
while I was sitting there, the guy behind me 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. When I asked my teenage son
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 son 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 one more time to my loving
brothers and sisters, 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 all 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 more time as I drove away. Praise the Lord for
such wonderful folks.
