I am so glad you know exactly what heaven will be like and who will be there..whew!

You may have missed something of the spiritual connection some of us have with our pets..My dog Lola was a gift from God ( God gives all good things) and she taught me more about love, God and being a Christian than any “human”.

If God brought this furry being to me, he most certainly will not “kill’ that bond becasue she died. I have no idea how this will work out in heaven, but I believe in the love of God.

You two are proving my point. You are loving the creation more than the creator.

The most important lessons we learn here about how to love. Love things that really need someone to love and take care of them. In the end the only things that really live on forever from here that we do, is love.

That love would all be a lie if God never brought those things back. We would have loved something that meant nothing. God is not like that. further it would put God in the position that the object of love isn’t as important as loving that object. That’s just wrong.
