Grandma still drives...

Grandma's letter.



She is eighty-eight years old and still drives her own car. She writes:



Dear Granddaughter:



The other day I went up to our local Christian book store 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 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!



While I was sitting there, the guy behind started honking like crazy,

And then he leaned out of his window and screamed, For the love of God!

Go! Go! Go! Jesus Christ, GO! What an exuberant cheerleader he was for

Jesus!



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.



I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle fingerstuck

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, I waved at all my brothers and sisters grinning, 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 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!!



Will write again soon,



Love, Grandma
