Re: Spirit in the Sky/Ingrid

[Guest guest]

Nonnie, I was always under the thought that when we die and make it

to heaven God will give us all the things we wished for. I have

always prayed to him that I would want my beloved pets that have gone

before me to be reunited with me. My husband once told me that in the

bible it states that we will not be in the same form as we were but

we will know each other by our mannerisms. He said he will know me by

all the tons of animals following me around. LOL All I can hope for

is that I will see and be with my beloved four legged friends again.

And of course all the humans I have known and loved. I guess we all

have different ideas what it will be like in the after life but I am

hoping that this will come to be. Ingrid
