Saturday.
Dear James,
How are you, my darling?
Lots of excitement here. The other day I popped into our local Christian book shop and saw a Honk if you love Jesus bumper sticker.
I was feeling particularly adventurous that day because I had just come from a thrilling choir practice, followed by a thunderous prayer meeting. So, I bought the sticker and put it on my bumper.
Goodness! I am glad I did; what an uplifting experience that followed.
I was stopped at traffic lights at the busy junction in the village, just lost in thought about the Lord and how good he is, and I didn't notice that the lights had changed.
It is a good thing someone else loves Jesus because if he hadn't honked, I'd never have noticed - and I'd never of realised how many people love Jesus!
While I was sitting there, the gentleman behind started honking and then he leaned out of his window and shouted "For the love of God! Go! Go! Go! For Christ's sake, GO!'
I must say, what an exuberant evangelist he was for the Lord!
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 joy!
There must have been a gentleman from the seaside in the queue behind me as I heard him shouting something about a sunny beach.
I saw another gentleman waving in a funny way with only his middle finger stuck up in the air.
I asked Uncle Max what he thought that meant.
He said it was probably am oriental good luck sign or something.
Well, I have never met anyone from the Orient so I leaned out the window and gave him the good luck sign back.
I'm not sure why, but Uncle Max 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 expect they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed.
So, grinning, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, and drove off.
I noticed that I was the only car that got through the traffic lights before they changed again and I felt 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 oriental good luck sign one last time as I drove away. Praise the Lord for such wonderful people!
Will write again soon,
Lots of love
Aunt La La.
