> I found that lots of people love Jesus!

> 'Go! Go!
> Go! Jesus Christ, GO!'

> What an exuberant cheerleader he was for Jesus!
>
> Everyone started honking!

> I even honked

> I saw another guy waving in a funny way with only his middle finger

>
> I asked my young 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

>
> My

>
> Why even he was enjoying this religious experience!!
>
> A couple of the people were so caught up in the joy of the moment that

> I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is

>
> So, grinning, I waved at all

>
> 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 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
