A GOD REMINDER

A man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard.  Suddenly, the light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

The tailgating woman hit the roof -- and the horn -- and screamed in frustration as she missed her chance to get through the intersection on his tail.  She was still in mid-rant when she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her  to exit her car with her hands up.

 

He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted, photographed, and placed in a cell. After a couple of hours, a jailer approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.

 

"I'm very sorry for the mistake," he tells her. "You see, I pulled up behind your car while you were blowing your horn  and cussing a blue streak at him. "I noticed the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'What Would Jesus Do?' bumper sticker, the 'Follow Me to Sunday School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk.  So naturally, I assumed you had stolen the car."


Don't forget, the only Jesus some people may ever see is who they see in you!
