Daily Joke

A man was passing through a small town and wanted to upgrade his mode of transportation. So he looked all around this small town he was in and found that the only place he could buy a faster means of transportation was at the local monastery. They had a horse for sale there for quite a deal. When the man was leaving the monastery with his new horse the monk that was sold him the horse said “Now all you have to remember is- When you want the horse to move all you need to say is ‘Hallelujah’ and when you want it to stop say ‘Amen.'” The man then gave the monk a half acknowledged nod and continued on his way.

After several miles the man sneezed and spooked the horse. The horse started running faster and faster. Then the man noticed a cliff ahead of him and stared to panic and said a prayer when the traveler said “Amen” the horse stopped right on the edge of the cliff. Then the man shouted and Praised God saying “Hallelujah!”
