I was planning to take some photos of a wooden wall to use as a backdrop upon which I could paste formatted Bible verses.
Once I got close to the wall, I realized there was a door in the wall and I had something I could also post to Thursday Doors.
The first photo shows what I was planning to photograph. The second photo shows the door. The third photo shows how I planned to use the first one.

“What?” the devil responded.
“You heard me,” John replied.
The devil didn’t say anything, but that didn’t stop John from continuing.
