A coincidence isn't a coincidence...

Grief and Godwinks
Grief is one of the most difficult paths to navigate in life. We may think we are ready. In fact, intellectually, we may be ready. But rarely are we prepared for the emotional burden that seems to be thrust upon us, to be carried all of a sudden, all by ourselves.
The loss of a pet is a weight upon our hearts that can feel just as heavy as the loss of another member of the family.
Your dog may have had extraordinary attributes that were missed even more than those from humans.
The unconditional love your dog demonstrated, over and over, meant that there was never a list of grievances kept against you. Maybe you didn’t always come home when you said you would, or you sometimes lost your temper. Your pet still loved you . . . without conditions.
What Godwinks Can Do
When it happens, you know that God has been with you all along⎯ yesterday, today, and He will be with you tomorrow.

Times of Trouble
When we go through times of trouble ⎯ hurricanes, tornadoes, pandemics ⎯ Godwinks and dogwinks are delivered to us out of the blue, as faith-building spirit-lifters.
As the ageless spiritual says it best . . . “I once was lost but now am found.”
As the ageless spiritual says it best . . . “I once was lost but now am found.”
Never lose faith
Was there ever something that you wanted more than anything, and you prayed for it, but knew there was no earthly way that God could possibly answer your prayer? Never lose faith. Prayer is your most important connector to the desires of your heart.
The more you communicate with Him⎯through prayer⎯the more He’ll communicate back to you through Godwinks, which, after all, is another word for “answered prayer.”

God Cares About All His Creations
When we lose a beloved pet, we ache from their absence. We feel the loss just as deeply as we would a human companion. God cares about all His creations and He knows how much we love our furry friends.
The good book tells us:
God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the sky . . . whatever man called every living creature, that was its name.
