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.<\/p>\n<p>Boy, am I glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed.&nbsp;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&#8217;t notice that the light had changed.&nbsp; It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn&#8217;t honked, I&#8217;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, &#8216;For the love of God! Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!&#8217; What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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 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, grinning, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, and drove on through the intersection.<\/p>\n<p>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!!<br \/>\nWill write again soon,<br \/>\nLove,<br \/>\nGranny<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Granny is eighty-eight years old and still drives her own car.&nbsp;She writes: Dear Grand-daughter, The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a &#8216;Honk if you love Jesus&#8217; bumper sticker.
