Friends & family: This one is too funny to let go! It came from Aunt Eileen
Uncle Andy
>>>LETTER FROM AUNT MARTHA
>>>
>>>Got a letter from Aunt Martha the other day.
>>>She writes... 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 it on my bumper. Boy, I'm 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! Why, 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! Jesus Christ,
>>>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 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 finger stuck up in the air.
>>>Then I asked my teenage son in the back seat what
>>>that meant, he said that it was probably a Hawaiian
>>>good luck sign or something. Well, I've never met
>>>anyone from Hawaii, so I leaned out the window and
>>>gave him the good luck sign back. My son 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 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, so I slowed the car down, leaned out of 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!
Aloha!
Regards and fair winds
