On Frogs, Me and Promises

A fat toad sat on my porch in the dark of morning.  I placed him in the grass and told him good luck and to be careful.  I read the Bible, the accounting of early man ending with Noah, the flood, and the rainbow.  When God made the rainbow Genesis records that He made a promise to Noah, his family and to all the birds, cattle and wild animals that He wouldn’t destroy the earth again.  I smiled that the toad and I had something in common, and not just any something but a really big something, God’s promise.
