Grandma writes,

The other day I went to the local Christian book store and saw a “Honk If You Love” Jesus bumper sticker.

I was feeling particularly sassy 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.

On my way home I was stopped at a red light at a busy intersection, just lost in the thought about the Lord and how good He is. I didn’t notice the light had changed.

It’s 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.

Why ?

Well, while I was sitting there, the guy behind me started honking like crazy, and then he leaned out and screamed, “for the love of God, Go! Go!” What a cheerleader he was for Jesus.

Everyone started honking !

I just leaned out my window and started waving and smiling at all these loving people. I even honked my horn a few times to share in the love.

I saw one guy waving with only his middle finger stuck up in the air. When I asked my teenage grandson in the back seat what that meant, he said it was probably a Hawaiian good luck sign or something. So I leaned out and gave him the good luck sign back. My grandson burst out laughing, even he was enjoying this religious experience right along with me.

A couple of people were so caught up in the joy they got out of their cars and started toward me. I bet they wanted to pray or ask what church I attended, but this is when I noticed the light had changed…

So, I waved to all my sisters and brothers, and drove on through the intersection. I noticed I was the only car that got through before the light changed again and I felt kind of sad that I had to leave after all the love we had shared.

So, I slowed my car down , learned out my window and gave them all the Hawaiian good luck sign one last time as I drove away.

Praise the Lord for such wonderful folks !

A man stumbles up to the only other patron in a pub and asks if he could buy him a drink.

“Why, of course,” comes the reply.

The first man then asks, “Where are you from?”

“I’m from Ireland,” replies the second man.

The first man responds: “You don’t say, I’m from Ireland too! Let’s have another round to Ireland.”

“Of course,” says the second.

Curious, the first asks: “Where in Ireland?”

“Dublin,” comes the reply.

“I can’t believe it, Me too! Lets have another round of drinks to Dublin.”

“Of course”

The second man can’t help himself so he asks, “What school did you go too?”

“Saint Mary’s”, replies the first man. “I graduated in ’62”

“This is becoming unbelievable!!!” They say in union.

About that time, in comes one of the regulars and sits down at the pub. “What’s up?” he asks the inn keeper.

“Nothing much,” replied the inn keeper. “The O’Malley twins are drunk again!”
