A preacher was making his rounds
to his parishioners on a bicycle when he came upon a little boy trying to sell a lawn
mower. "How much do you want for the mower?" asked the preacher.
"I just want enough money to go out and buy me a bicycle",
said the little boy. After a moment of consideration, the preacher asked, "Will you
take my bike in trade for it?" The little boy asked if he could try it out first, and
after riding the bike around a little while said, "Mister, you've got yourself a
deal."
The preacher took the mower and began to try to crank it. Pulling on
the string a few times with no response from the mower. The preacher called the little boy
over, "I can't get this mower to start." The little boy said, "That's
because you have to cuss at it to get it started."
The preacher said, "I am a minister, and I cannot cuss. It
has been so long since I have been saved that I do not even remember how to cuss."
The little boy looked at him happily and said, "Just keep pullin's on that
string. It'll come back to ya'!"
