My mom never let me have a pet when I was a kid because she said she didn't like taking care of them but truthfully I think it is because she cried for hours whenever any of them died.
My son's parakeet just passed away and a couple years ago his hamster died and he's heart broken by both deaths, though I haven't told him about his bird yet. He went to bed before the vet called with the news.
I don't know its so sad, is it worth keeping pets just to see them die.
I"m feeling kind of down. anyway I guess I'll read the Bible and maybe find someone in the chatroom to talk to but if you have thoughts on pets and whether we should or should not keep them, I'd love to hear your thoughts. we still have my daughter's parakeet, my son's beta fish and our family dog. I think I'll start putting them in our nightly prayers.
this was the Bible verse in my email today. it made me cry:
There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.
~ John 15:13, NLT
I always wonder how can you sacrifice animals you spend so much time raising to pay for YOUR sins?
How could God sacrifice His son for us?
I'm not very good with dealing with death, it just sorrows my heart.
