 Paul, a city feller went to visit a friend's farm. When he saw a very big beautiful black horse there, he decided that he must own it. He would buy the horse for himself! But Paul could not take justice home...
After a lot of chat his friend finally sold him his city friend the horse whose name was Justice. They also agreed that since Paul lived in the city, that Justice would stay on the farm and that Paul could come out and ride the horse whenever he had time. This was just perfect.
Happy with this deal, Paul got a great idea...
Paul decided to take the horse for a spin... well, go for a ride on the Justice. He hopped into the saddle and cried , "Giddyup!" The horse didn't budge.
The farmer explained, "This is a special kind of horse. He'll only move if you say, 'Praise the Lord.' To get him to stop him, you have to say, "Amen".
Keeping this in mind, Paul shouted, "Praise the Lord!" whereupon Justice took off in a flash and headed stright for a cliff.
With great fear, Paul yanked hard on the reins, but Justice thundered on. Finally Paul remembered and shouted "Amen!" at which Justice came to a screeching halt right at the edge of the cliff.
Relieved, the Paul raised his eyes to heaven and exclaimed, "Praise the Lord!"
