If heaven is where all good things are,
my pets will be there because they were good.
If heaven is where all love is,
my pets will be there because they love me,
and I love them.
If heaven is a a place of perfect joy,
my pets will be there for they bring me joy.
If heaven is where God dwells,
my pets will be there for God made them
and pronounced them good.
If heaven is where my Hevenly Father dwells,
my pets will be there for my Heavenly Father knows
how much they mean to me.
If heaven is where my dreams are fufilled,
my pets will be there for they play on in my dreams.
If heaven is where I shall go someday,
my pets will be there for without them,
it would not be heaven.
I feel it arrogant to think that only humans
have a chance to go to heaven.
Did not God himself create the animals of the earth?
Did he not look at them and say they are good?
Why would God waste a creation
that he had pronounced good.
I ask myself, would I truely be happy if my babies
(for my pets are my babies)
were not there waiting for me when I arrive in heaven?
I always answer myself,
No. I would not be happy.
Now I have been taught that God is truely
my Heavenly Father
and loves me more than any earthly father
could ever love his child.
If that is so,
God knows how much my pets mean to me.
If he knows how important my pets are to me,
why would he deny them to me?
It would be easy enough for him
to allow them to dwell in heaven,
so why would he deny them entry
if he knows how much I want them there with me.
Personnally,
I feel all living things will be present in heaven.
Otherwise heaven will be a very strange
and unfamiliar place.
If God created us in His image,
why wouldn't he create animals in the image
of the creatures dwelling in heaven?
God knows my heart and loves me.
He knows that if my babies were not there
in heaven with me,
I would not be happy,
and God wants me happy.
I know that this isn't a quote of the Bible,
with passages proving
that our pets will be with us.
This is only my feelings.
It doesn't make sense to me why God
would deny me my pets
in a place where all is good and perfect.
Without my babies, nowhere is perfect to me.
Does not the Bible say that God
will answer every prayer?
Pray about it.
Ask Him yourself.
Where a priest, bishop, rabbi or other clergy
might misinterpret what He says,
God will tell you only truth.
Pray to Him and then listen to His response.
I know what He has told me.
He loves me and would never deny me my babies.
