Hi Gina,

Thank you for sending this to me.
It reminds me of the scripture:

"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny?
Yet not one of them is forgotten by God" Luke 12:6

Animals do have brains and feelings,
and they are so pure of heart they are
unashamed let them show.

When my daughter was a young teen, she lost her first horse.

She asked a preacher friend of ours if horses go to heaven.

He replied, "Animals live their lives in God's will.

They don't know sin.

They never leave his presence in the first place."
