God & I

Pastor Jesse Johnson
I got that license plate back in 95 or 96. The ironic thing about that license plate—I wanted it to say GOD & ME. A good friend of mine, I don’t’ know if you know him, Pastor Hayes, Rupert Hayes, anyway, he had GOD & ME, so I couldn’t get that. So I had to change it to GOD & I. What made me get those license plates was in 1994, my wife passed away. She had sugar real bad and she passed away. I just felt so alone, so therefore I say, “Well, Lord, it’s just You and me.” Just God and myself. And a commemoration to her, I had the license plate GOD & I. Because on my other car I had her initials and my initials on it. So as a commemoration to her, now it’s just God and I. That’s why I keep that license plate.
