View all 20 ReflectionsEvery living thing on this planet is created in spirit before they receive a physical body. Fury was created and sent to the earth by our Heavenly Father. Now, Fury sits at the right hand of our God and will never have to interact with a flawed human being and their hateful intentions. Fury was taken home on November 11th the day the guns of " The Great War", world war 1 ended. What a special animal, he will not ever hurt again. Bless his earthly family and handler officer. We all hope they heal as soon as possible.
