About Bongo

I am a dog who has lots of mini adventures that I love to share. I live with a cat named Scratchy who sometimes steals my blog, and with two people. When my adventures don't turn out so well I get my person to laugh while she helps me write my blog and then I don't get into as much trouble.

The Mystery Solved

16 Jun

I’ve been investigating this weird animal phenomenon all week and I’ve finally come to the bottom of it.

Here’s what’s going on.

Every day my person has been locking me in dog jail and leaving.

She says she’s been hanging out with weird animals.

I don’t know why she has to leave the house to do that.

I mean, what could be weirder than the two cats I live with?

***

My person hasn’t helped at all with my investigation so I’ve had to sneak peeks at her camera to see what I could find.

She takes pictures of everything so I knew the answer had to be there.

Well, I found snakes, and tarantulas, and even some pug puppies and their mom – but all those animals live in Arizona so I’m not sure what’s so weird about them.

***

But then I found it.

A sign with a really weird animal on it.

That animal must be hanging around somewhere.

But wait!

What’s holding up that sign?

Those are legs.

And they don’t belong to any weird animal that I know of.

I knew it!

My person has been hanging out with kids.

Lots of kids!

Kids throwing balls.

And she didn’t bring me.

My person has been up to so much mischief!

We’ll see who’s weird by the time I get through with her.

Wind and Fire

15 Jun

Hey person, I’m still trying to figure out what those weird animals are you’ve been hanging out with all week.

I’m not ready for another Bible story.

If I listen will you tell me about the weird animals?

What do you mean, I have to take my chances?

But last week Jesus went up into heaven.

Isn’t the story over?

Okay, I’m listening.

***

When the day of Pentecost came, the disciples were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.

***

We had wind here today.

Do you think it was the same wind that blew on us and them?

I am listening.

***

They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.

***

Somebody better get the fire hose!

What do you mean, listen to the story?

Are you going to get the fire hose, person?

***

All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

***

Did the Holy Spirit get the fire hose?

***

Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking in his own language.

***

I bet some of them could even speak to dogs.

Yes, I’m listening.

I think I hear someone speaking my language.

***

Utterly amazed, they asked, “Are not all these men who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in his own native language? Parthians, Medes, and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs – we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”

***

I wonder if the dogs from all those places speak the same language?

I am speaking – I mean listening.

***

Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”

***

I bet if all those people could speak to their dogs it would all be explained.

Not a Weird Animal

14 Jun

I’ve been working on this mystery all week.

Why does my person leave me in dog jail and leave the house talking about weird animals?

I think I might finally be getting somewhere.

I’ve been sneaking peaks at her camera when she’s not looking.

And I’ve finally found something.

Hey wait a minute!

That’s not a weird animal.

That’s a dog.

And those are puppies.

What’s so weird about that?

Did my person say she was hanging out with weird animals, or leaving the weird animals?

I’d better check this out.

She couldn’t be talking about me.

It must be the cats!

How Weird Can it Get?

13 Jun

The mystery is getting so deep I’m having trouble keeping my Detective Dog hat on.

All week my person has been leaving me and talking about weird animals.

What is she doing?

I think I should be informed.

Or maybe not.

Is there something crawling up my leg?

Weird

11 Jun

I went to investigate those weird animals my person keeps talking about and I thought I’d start with her camera.

I found something that’s got me really confused.

Why is a mole out in the sunlight while I’m stuck in dog jail.

That’s weird.

I’ll Do it Tomorrow

10 Jun

I was getting ready to put on my Detective Dog hat and investigate those weird animals.

You know, the ones my person keeps talking about that for some reason are taking all her time from helping me with my blog.

But just as I went for my hat there was a knock on the door.

Knocks on the door are always exciting.

It means there’s a person on the other side.

And it was one of my friends.

He said he came to see Gizmo because Gizmo used to live with him.

But I know different.

He was looking for an excuse to come see me.

I’m all worn out now.

I’ll investigate those weird animals tomorrow.

Up in the Sky

08 Jun

I’ve been out swimming – I mean baptizing – since you told me that story last week.

But I haven’t seen Jesus hanging around.

Isn’t He supposed to be with us?

I was kind of hoping He’d send some fish along while we’re out in all that water.

Okay, I’ll stop swimming long enough to listen.

But only if the story’s short.

***

Jesus said to the disciples, “You will receive Power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

***

Oh, maybe I’m still waiting for the Holy Spirit.

Then I’ll see some fish.

***

After Jesus said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.

***

Now that’s freaky.

Maybe Jesus is going to send fish raining down.

I am listening.

***

The disciples were looking intently up into the sky as Jesus was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
