Honk If You Love Jesus

The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw a bumper sticker that said, "HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS".  I was in a "Hallaluiah" kind of mood since I had just come from choir practice, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting. So...I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.  I felt a sudden rush of giddiness. So, this is what "impulse buying" is all about, I thought.  Boy, am I glad I did! What an uplifting experience followed.  On the way home I stopped at a red light at a busy intersection.  I was lost in thought about the Lord and how good He is and I didn't notice that the light had changed.  It's a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd have never noticed.  It was then that I found that LOTS of people love Jesus!  The driver in the second car behind me leaned out of his window and shouted, "For the love of God! Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO!"  What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!  Then everyone started honking.  It was thrilling. I 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.  I saw another guy waving in a cute way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air.  I asked my 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.  Then I noticed the light had changed. So I waved at all my "brothers and sisters" and drove on through the intersection.  I noticed that 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 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. Just think, I would have never known so many people love Jesus if I had not bought that bumper sticker.  A little impulse buying is good for the soul!  I can't wait to get on the road again!
