"Methai" elephant in oils by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"Methai" is one of the many Indian elephants that make their home at the Houston Zoo.

My husband and I took a trip a few weeks back, bringing along my newest digital camera. Most of the animals did not "behave" for photos, but I was blessed to catch several good shots of the elephants. They were so frisky that day, since it was a warm break from weeks of very cold weather. The calves were super frisky, which made it hard to catch even one good shot of those 200-350 pound babies.

"Methai" is painted in oils on an 8"x 10" clay board. Contact me at sandrasart777@aol.com

Sometimes I hear people questioning as to whether God is going to have animals in Heaven. As a Christian, I believe that heaven just wouldn't be heaven without animals. I believe that the Creator of millions of different species of animals, birds, insects and fish is a God who loves variety and adores all of His creation. A careful study of the Bible convinces me that Heaven will be richer in everything, including animal life than the most paradise-like part of earth we've ever seen so far. God said it has not entered in to the heart of man what He has in store for us. I love animals, and so does the one who created them. I even dream of seeing my beloved pets that I have lost in this life.

"This plan, which God will complete when the time is right, is to bring all creation together, everything in heaven and on earth, with Christ as head." Ephesians 1:10
