GRANDMA BOUGHT A BUMPER STICKER FOR HER OLD BUICK...she writes:

The other day I went to the local religious bookstore where I saw a
"Honk if You Really Love Jesus" bumper sticker.  I bought it and put
it on the back bumper of my car and I'm really glad I did.  What an
uplifting experience followed.

I was stopped at the light of a busy intersection...just lost in
thought about the Lord, and didn't notice that the light had changed. 
That bumper sticker really worked!  I found lots of  people who love
Jesus.  Why, the guy behind me started to honk like crazy.  He must
really love the Lord because pretty soon he leaned out his window and
yelled, "Jesus Christ!" as loud as he could.  Why, it was like a
football game with him shouting, "Go, Jesus Christ, Go!"

Everyone else started honking too, so I leaned out my window and waved
and smiled  to all those loving people.  There must have been a guy
from Florida back there because I could hear him  yelling something
about a sunny beach, and I saw him waving in a funny way with only his
middle finger stuck up in the air.  I had recently asked my two
grandsons what that meant.  They kind of squirmed, looked at each
other, giggled and told me that it was the Hawaiian good luck sign, so
I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back.

A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that
they got out of their cars and, were walking towards me.  I bet they
wanted to pray, but just then I noticed that the light had changed,
and I stepped on the gas.

It's a good thing I did, because I was the only car to get across the
intersection.  I  looked back at them standing there.  I leaned out
the window, gave them a big  smile, and held up the Hawaiian Good Luck
sign as I drove away.

Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks!

Love ya all,
Grandma
