Friends: We just lost our 17 year old dog that was cherished and loved by family, friends, and all others that ever came into contact with her. I know that others have experienced (or will soon experience) this sad fate. Although our dog couldn't talk or write while on this earth, I did receive this message from her conveyed through the Holy Spirit. Please don’t be sad now that I’m gone, My legs once more are as strong as the wind, I have no more encumbrances or nagging pain, And I’m able to run and jump again. I’m so sorry that I had to leave you now, But our separation will just be for a short while, Soon we’ll be together for all eternity, To laugh, to love, to dance, to smile. My life has been full, I have savored so much, Don’t diminish those memories with undue grief, We’ll meet again soon in Heavenly Pastures, I’ve been told me that this interval will be very brief. Jesus is currently holding me in His lovingly arms, And He appreciates the care that you provided to me, Let not your heart be troubled –please share my delight, I am unbelievably happy and have finally been set free! I will see you soon, so keep please keep smiling, I am no longer blind nor deaf, Your Blessed Hope is on the far horizon, I will always love you -- you are my beloved BFF! Humbly Sad and still Irrelevant I seldom cry except when I have to put a pet down. It so crushes my spirit. I know with complete certainty that I will be reunited with them in Heaven. I had to put down my oldest dog a year ago and I’m still sad over it. Pets are such a gift form God, and dogs especially because they love us unconditionally. None of my cats ever expressed love like my dogs have. I am so grateful for the space they all own in my heart and soul. i am saddened and sorry for your loss, Humbly. ? So sorry Humbly over your loss ~~ pets are like 'children', . it's sad they don't live long . . ~~ your poem was deeply touching ~ ~ words very much true, saying you both will be reunited . . ~~ Like losing a family member. I hate death. So sorry for your loss and praying the Lord will comfort you and your family members as you work through the grieving process... Not being an avowed pet owner, I must default to the emotional attachments that are formed! Hoping that each of you will find your beloved pet's in Heaven. And if not find new one's. Seem's to me, if I will no longer be husband to my wife, I cannot scriptural guarantee the same for pets! TR
