What I Believe
QUOTE OF THE WEEK

All the purposes of man have been defeated, but not the purposes of God. The promises of man may be broken—many of them are made to be broken—but the promises of God shall all be fulfilled. He is a promise-maker, but He never was a promise-breaker; He is a promise-keeping God, and every one of His people shall prove it to be so. This is my grateful, personal confidence, "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me"—unworthy me, lost and ruined me. 

Charles Spurgeon, A Defense of Calvinism

So. . .

. . .about that deposit over there?
It wasn't that I didn't care.
I tried!
(At least you didn't slide!)

 UPDATED TO ADD:

I never read Laura's post until after I compose my poem (so I don't get any ideas from anything other than the photo) and when I went back to read it, I learned that the puppy is not a puppy after all and his name is Captain Jack Sparrow.  As a huge fan of Cap'n Jack, I decided this dog needed a more appropriate poem.

Looking into that sweet little face, it was hard to think of that boy Jack as a pirate. But then, I remembered he is a beagle and beagles are notorious thieves. Here's my ode to Jack the Pirate-y Beagle:

Yes, I nicked it,
don't look irate;
but you knew that
I am a Pirate.

In a brown box
Two books
Are travelling your way
An envelope will arrive first...
