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 the mountains. As he headed towards a cliff, he tried to 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 edge of the cliff.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.
Have A Great Sunday!
God Bless!!

Ah, Marion,You are such a delight. This is hilarious, thanksfor making my day!Your friend,
Jen :-) :-)
I loved the story, Marion!
Here's another to add to Sunday's humor:
A new pastor was visiting in the homes of his parishioners. At one house it seemed obvious that someone was at home, but no answer came to his repeated knocks at the door. Therefore, he took out a card and wrote 'Revelation 3:20' on the back of it and stuck it in the door. When the offering was processed the following Sunday, he found that his card had been returned. Added to it was this cryptic message, 'Genesis 3:10.' Reaching for his Bible to check out the citation, he broke up in gales of laughter. Revelation 3:20 begins 'Behold, I stand at the door and knock.' Genesis 3:10 reads, 'I heard your voice in the garden and I was afraid for I was naked.' Blessings to all, Dennis
