Hard to type through tears.

I like to think we will see them all again.

God bless you.

Here’s just one of the Bible verses I believe teaches us that animals are in Heaven...

From Romans 8:

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

Get a copy of “Animals and Christianity, A Book of Readings” by Andrew Linzey and Tom Regan.

It’s a book of essays by theologians like C.S. Lewis, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Thomas Aquinas, John Wesley and many more...all of whom believed that God would not create an innocent creature, allow it to suffer, and not reward it.

This book should be in every Christian animal lover’s library.
