Trudy's Joy Day...

Grandma Trudy is eighty-eight years old, fit on the computer and still drives her own car!!!
Here is an E-Mail she recently sent to her friend:

Dear Jeanie ,

How are you, my dear?
I just got to tell you about all my excitement.
The other day I went up to our local Christian book store and saw this '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 and was now on my way for some treats with my grandson.
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 finger stuck up in the air.
I asked my 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, beaming, I waved at all my brothers and sisters, 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 just 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, Trudy
