Opis

Read this if you have lost or are about to lose a family pet. Your grieving is real, your loss painful, your feelings genuine. Be comforted One of those things we would rather not think about is the loss of a pet. Like the loss of a mother or father, brother or sister, a pet is family too. Sometimes, we have deeper feelings about our pet than we do our own kin. Is it bad? I don't know. Our feelings are real and should be taken seriously. These gentle, reflective thoughts look at the death of a beloved animal in terms of reflections on your own spiritual life. How we deal with our pets sometimes tells a lot about our human values, and what our true feelings are. When a pet dies, we grieve. We sense a loss of companionship that we may not experience with family members, who may live in different parts of the country. Pets remind us of our purpose as stewards of the life around us. The care and feeding of our animal companion is bound up inexorably with our nature and our destiny to be with God in Heaven. This book shows how you can put the death of your pet in a spiritual perspective. Only humans go to Heaven. Why is that? Learn how you can take all of your animals, indeed all your most treasured experiences, to Heaven with you. The care and nurturing of an animal companion can be an occasion of Grace and Peace Read the Song of the Three Young Men in Daniel 3:51-75. Pets are on earth to fulfill their nature. You fulfill your nature as a human being by seeking the Kingdom of Heaven. Pets help us do that. You are a facilitator and a steward of all life. If you are the one who will allow your pet to go to Heaven, you had better make sure you make it there, too.
