GRANDMA’S BUMPER STICKER

Grandma bought a bumper sticker for her old Buick. She writes:

The other day I went to the local religious book store where I saw a “Honk if you really love Jesus” bumper sticker. I bought it and put it on the back bumper of my car and I’m really glad that I did. What an uplifting experience followed.

I was stopped at the traffic lights of a very busy intersection …just lost in my thoughts about the Lord Jesus and failed to notice the light change from red to green. That bumper sticker really worked! I found lots of people who love Jesus.

Why, the guy behind me started to honk like crazy. He must really love Jesus because he soon leaned out his window and yelled, “Jesus Christ!” as loud as he could.

Everyone else started honking too so I leaned out my window, waved and smiled at all those loving people. There must have been a guy from Florida because he was yelling something about a sunny beach and I saw him waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air. I had recently asked my two grandsons what that meant. They kind of squirmed, looked at each other, giggled and told me it was the Hawaiian good luck sign so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back.

A couple of others 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 but just then I noticed that the light had turned green and I stepped on the gas. It’s a good thing I did because I was the only car to get across the intersection. I looked back at them standing there, leaned out the window, gave them a big smile and held up the Hawaiian Good Luck sign as I drove away.

Praise the Lord for such good folk.
