The other day I went up to a local Christian bookstore
and 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 in on my
bumper. 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 started
honking like crazy, and when he leaned out of his window
and screamed, "for the love of God, GO! 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. 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 to
all my sisters and brothers 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 after all
the love we had shared.
Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!
