Such Wonderful Folks!

The other day I went to the local religious book store, where I saw a HONK IF YOU 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 at 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. 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 of 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 saw him waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air.

I asked my two kids 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.

Several cars behind, a very nice black man stepped out of his car and yelled something. I couldn't hear him very well, but it sounded like, "Mother trucker," or "Mother's from there." Maybe he was from Florida, too. He must really love the Lord.

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 toward me. I bet they wanted to pray, but just then I noticed that the light had changed to yellow, and stepped on the gas.

And a good thing I did, because I was the only driver to get across the intersection. I looked back at them standing there. I leaned way 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.

Thank you Sandee.

And now, all we need is an inspirational song. Something like "Drop Kick Me Jesus Through the Goal Posts of Life." Everybody sing!

you cracked me up today, especially the Hawaiian good luck sign as you drove away.

don't you just love those jesus-freaks!

It was too bad we missed you guys...it was a last minute destination. It had been such nice weather...I figured you'd be at the Delta. Trying to get some riding time in around the rain before The Teamster hits the road for his Five-O tour. Say Hey to Z for me!

Sandee, this is just why I won't put one on my car. I had a Billy Graham sign once when he was in town. I had to drive really carefully, generally I'm skillful rather than careful.

Liked your squirrel, wheren't you afraid he would bite you? When I made the monkey YouTube I was so afraid he would grab my hand when we shook hands. But I did it skillfully and everything worked out.

Finally Mrs. Jim really does get dumber when she goes blonde. But she has more fun. :-)

I did learn something here:
I've allways been convinced that fingers up meant: Listen to the Lord in Heaven - Can't you see Him watching right now?
And that people shouting, they talked in toungues.

But I'm only a humble Viking, named after Thor, an ancient Half God from the Nordic Mythology - so I'm perhaps excused and salvation might be in reach.

However I'm convinced the Bible gave you the Spirit to pass the intersection at the very right moment.

Strange how fingers up and a book can solve majore conflicts;))

SpeakDog on March 26, 2009 3:53 PM said...

Hmmm, I think I may have been one of those folks behind you....
