Talking

A man bought a donkey from a preacher. The preacher told the man
that this donkey had been trained in a very unique way, (being the donkey
of a preacher). The only way to make the donkey go, was to say,
"Hallelujah!" The only way to make the donkey stop, was to say,
"Amen!"

The man was pleased with his purchase and immediately got on the
animal to try out the preacher's instructions. "Hallelujah!" shouted the
man. The donkey began to trot. "Amen!" shouted the man. The donkey
stopped immediately. "This is great!" said the man. With a "Hallelujah," he
rode off very proud of his new purchase.

The man traveled for a long time through some mountains. Soon he was
heading toward a cliff. He could not remember the word to make the
donkey stop. "Stop," said the man. "Halt!" he cried. The donkey just
kept going. "Oh, no... Bible!....Church!...Please Stop!!" shouted the
man. The donkey just began to trot faster. He was getting closer and
closer to the cliff edge. Finally, in desperation, the man said a
prayer. "Please, dear Lord. Please make this donkey stop before I go
off the end of this mountain, In Jesus name, AMEN."

The donkey came to an abrupt stop just one step from the edge of the
cliff.

"HALLELUJAH!", shouted the man.
