Revelation 5:13 ~ Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing

 

Do Animals and Pets Go To Heaven? Do Animals Go to Heaven?!!!!

Scriptures never say Heaven is only for humans. 

Revelation 5:13

Then I heard every creature in heaven 

and on earth 

and under the earth 

and on the sea, 

and all that is in them, 

singing:

"To Him who sits on the throne 

and to the Lamb

be praise 

and honor 

and glory 

and power,

for ever 

and ever!"

 

Psalm 36:6 

Your righteousness is like the mountains of God; 

Your judgments are like the great deep; 

man and beast 

You save, 

O Lord.

Do all Brown Springer Spaniels go to Heaven?

We certainly hope so and expect

grand reunions!

Proverbs 12:10

A righteous man has regard for the life of his animal

Who else was in the crowd in the wilderness

seeking Jesus?

Acts 3:19-21

Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out,

 that times of refreshing 

may come from the presence of the Lord, 

and that He may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus, 

whom heaven must receive 

until the time

 for restoring all the things 

about which God spoke 

by the mouth of his holy prophets long ago.

Job 12:10 

In His hand is the life 

of every living thing 

and the breath of all mankind.

Mark 16:15

15 And He said unto them,

Go ye into all the world, 

and preach the gospel 

to every creature. 

15 And He said to them, 

"Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel 

to the whole creation."

Psalm 145:21

My mouth will speak the praise of the Lord, 

and let all flesh 

bless His Holy Name 

forever 

and 

ever.

Revelation 21:5

And He, Who was seated on the Throne, said, 

“Behold, I am making all things new.”

Revelation 19:14

And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, 

white and pure, 

were following Him 

on 

white horses.

I'd like a white horse!

Psalm 24:1 

The earth is the Lord's

 and the fullness thereof,

 the world 

and 

those who dwell therein.

God’s covenant with Noah included both people and animals (Genesis 9:9-11). However, that covenant was not one of eternal life, but that He would not again destroy the earth with a flood.

The fourth commandment as recorded in Deuteronomy 5:12-15 includes a Sabbath rest for animals as well as people. Again, it reveals some equality between people and animals, but makes no statement regarding animals going to heaven

Psalm 148:5-6

Let everything He has made give praise to Him. 

For He issues His Command,

 and they came into being 

He established them forever and forever. 

His orders will never be revoked.

Jesus said:

Matthew 6:26

Look at the birds of the air; 

they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, 

and yet 

your Heavenly Father feeds them. 

Are you not much more valuable than they?

Matthew 10:29

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?

 Yet not one of them will fall to the ground 

apart from the will of your Father.

Elijah was picked up from heaven by horses, this was told to Elijah before it occurred and Elisha saw it happen. The Lord could have sent anything to convey Elijah to heaven, but the horses came from heaven and the Lord sent them.

2 Kings 2:

11 As they were walking along and talking together, 

suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared 

and separated the two of them, 

and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. 

12 Elisha saw this and cried out, 

"My father! My father!

 The chariots and horsemen of Israel!"

The four winds sent from heaven are on horses. 

The four winds are written of in Daniel, Zechariah and Revelations 7.

Zechariah 6

2 The first chariot had red horses, the second black, 3 the third white, and the fourth dappled—all of them powerful. 4 I asked the angel who was speaking to me, "What are these, my lord?"

5 The angel answered me, "These are the four spirits of heaven,

 going out from standing 

in the presence of the Lord 

of the whole world.

Ephesians 4:6

One God and Father of all,
who is over all and through all and in all.
7 Now to each one of us 

grace 

has been given

 according to the measure of the gift 

of Christ

Acts 20:28

Keep watch over yourselves 

and all the flock 

of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. 

Be shepherds!!!

Proverbs 3:3-4 ~ The Tablet of your Heart †

Nevah evah, thought I'd post about our Poodles. And then... you realize you have to make the Post.

It was February of 2019, we were in the emergency room. I had been sitting shoulder to shoulder with a man diagnosed with Pneumonia for about 4 hours. I was sitting, bleeding on the floor.  ER attendants had removed the careful wrap of our good GP Dr. hours earlier. The RN going past said, not to worry, the emergency room had seen blood before.  

We had been taking care of our eldest son's dog, Jackson, who was 14 and dying. We had turned the den into a giant dog playpen. And sat with Jackson to get him comfortable at night and sleepy with the medication.  Our other dog was sad and depressed, too. Beau, the beautiful 7-year-old Springer Spaniel. About 1 AM, I came in to get my slippers and Beau was awakened with Springer Rage. I had been his favorite person, but the next thing, I was calling to Edward, asleep in bed, to rescue me 3 rooms over, quickly, because Beau was shredding my right upper arm and literally hanging from the upper arm muscle. Beau was surrendered for biting and shredding my upper arm, a hip deep bite and a punch on my thigh from his jaw that took 6 weeks to go from black, to purple, yellow and gone.

And that afternoon, I looked out over the parking lot, with pretty trees, from the ER waiting room and went from misery (at my IV needing injury and the shock of loss of my beautiful, beloved Springer) to a glimpse of something far away, bringing great joy.  Something was stirring, God was telling me.  Misery fell far behind, and I noticed how beautiful the trees were.

I told Edward we were not waiting 5 more minutes, of the 4 hours, for an IV and I was going home. We exited.  I wondered what was stirring, as we gladly came home.

In a few weeks, a friend had told me I was just made to have Standard Poodles. And the first dog, who overcame my 4-year-old self fear of dogs, was a Standard Poodle, Springer mix. Sadie. In about March, I was looking for a brown poodle. And discovering this could be a 70 lb dog. 

Then, in Tyler, Texas, a well-known Poodle breeder had 8 puppies. 50 lbs. We were on the road, and time seemed to drag, forever, as we drove there. In came 3 white Poodle Puppies. I knew I wanted all 3. Edward said no, but was most concerned to find this was a Birthday Present from my mother, and I got to say how many Poodles came home. We flipped a coin and I got to pick out the boy and a female. I was surprised to find, on the way home, we had the fraternal sister and not the twin. But the fraternal, was a thrill. She loves everything that is life and seeks fun continually. Yes, God was right, something big had happened. Edward and I were now singing to dogs. The baby dogs slept on our Jackson. Jackson didn't mind.  Big, and hugely, furry Husky meets two small, white Poodles. 

And the Poodles have my father's Birthday. There you go. Smile with me.

When I wake up in the morning, the first thing, after prayer, is to meet Lily. Who is in my face, and has to have her eyes cleared of the gigantic morning goo. 

Now, this is the reason for the Post:

After this small, for a Standard, Poodle has her eyes gently cleaned out, she begins to let me know by kissing both of my hands, how grateful she is. 

She is grateful to see, she is grateful for the day, she is glad for her good life, she loves me, she loves Edward. She kisses me because she has her own Big Brother Poodle. Her Brother Poodle kisses her, since meeting the two, kissy orange, adopted kitty cats. She kisses me because she knows we will play fetch the Tennis Ball.  The kisses flow from gratitude for the daily walks. And the veggies and yogurt with Kibble.  She knows Gummy children vitamins. She kisses me because love flows from her heart. She is the most grateful and happy dog, who finds even when having separation anxiety, that she has her Brother Poodle to have love.  This is a very loving and grateful Pup.

2011 Photo I took on the San Diego Plane Ride

Many people took a photo when I showed Edward. Screaming Poodle.

It was a blurt.

Wooley Booley, Wooley Booooooley

Yes, I cut their hair. 80s Hair Band. And there is always a mistake,

but, hey, in 7 days, Voilà.

This is an everyday event. And on Monday, what struck me, if my sweet Poodle can have so much Gratitude, I should practice this. 

And so, Monday, I began to pray Gratitude Blessings as my Poodle displayed her heart. And I found out, Lily is much more experienced finding Gratitude than I have been practicing.

 

Proverbs 3:3-4

Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; 

bind them around your neck; 

write them on the tablet of your heart.

 So you will find favor and good success 

in the sight of God and man.

 

Abba, Father,

Hello, today I discovered my

pup has a lot of Gratitude.

In fact, I was surprised to consider,

prayerfully, how much gratitude she has.

And I hope to grow my Gratitude,

Thanks ability

and notice Gratitude more

often.

Thank You for showing me

how much Gratitude really abounds.

And this month, I will be 

saying Thank You a lot more.

Bless You for

Giving us

Jesus Christ.

We certainly need Jesus.

Amen.

Matthew 11:28-30 ~ Rest

 

 

Matthew 11:28-30

28 “Come to me, all you who are weary 

and burdened, 

and I will give you rest. 

29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, 

for I am gentle and humble in heart, 

and you will find rest for your souls. 

30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Jesus said, do not worry, it won't add a cubit to your life.

The truth is, if we worry less, we enjoy His gifts more.

Because if we trust Him, we can rest. The Nature of our Father, Jesus tells us no one living has seen, is understood and revealed in Jesus. Nothing too hard to understand. To do good, to give justice with mercy and walk humbly with God.

Numbers 23:19-20

God is not human, that He should lie, not a human being,

 that He should change His Mind. 

Does He speak and then not act? 

Does He promise and not fulfill? 

20 "Behold, I have received a command to bless; 

When He has blessed, 

then I cannot revoke it."

Titus 3:5 

He saved us, 

not by the righteous deeds we had done, 

but according to His mercy

Exodus 33

Moses asked the Lord

Yet You have said, ‘I know you by name, and you have also found favor in my sight.’ 13 Now therefore, if I have found favor in your sight, please show me now your ways, that I may know you in order to find favor in your sight. Consider too that this nation is your people.”

 14 And He said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

 15 And he said to Him, “If your presence will not go with me, do not bring us up from here. 16 For how shall it be known that I have found favor in your sight, I and your people?

 Is it not in your going with us,

 so that we are distinct, I and your people, 

from every other people on the face of the earth?”

17 And the Lord said to Moses, 

“This very thing that you have spoken I will do, 

for you have found favor in my sight, 

and I know you by name.” 

18 Moses said, “Please show me your glory.” 

19 And He said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name ‘The Lord.’ And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. 20 But,” He said, “you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.”

Psalm 23:1-2

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 

He makes me lie down in green pastures. 

He leads me beside still waters.

Psalm 34:8 

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good! 

Blessed 

is the man who takes refuge in Him!

Psalm 4:8

In peace

 I will both lie down and sleep; 

for You alone, O Lord, 

make me dwell in safety.
