Describe the perfect world:
Contrary
to what many believe, the perfect world has already existed. God, in His
infinite power and creativity, dreamed up, created and perfected the perfect
world. I have always imagined the beginning of the world to be something that
one might picture from a fairytale. There is green grass everywhere, filled
with wildflowers that grow and bloom and open their faces to the warm sunshine
that showers the earth. The sky is full of perfect white fluffy clouds that
stand out against the blueness of the air behind them. (In my perfect world,
there would be no evil birds, only ones who desire not to scare the pants off
of young girls.) The sky would be filled with the most colorful or birds, whose
chirping and singing create the most beautiful sound imaginable. The green grass would be the carpet for huge
mountain ranges, with perfect white caps on their tops. At the center of all of
this, there sits a garden. The garden is like a rainforest, only there is less
humidity, and animals of every kind roam around. There is no snake to tempt
humans. God literally dwells at the center and man and woman encounter Him
daily. The love they have for their Creator is the purist form of love. There
is nothing that could ever separate them from their God.
And as
man and woman begin to reproduce, the population of the world increases. There
is not one soul who is brought into sin. No one has a desire to sin against
their Creator. They only desire to know Him in a deeply personal and unique
way. There are no heart aches, nor greed, or lust, or a desire for power. Each
individual only desires to grow closer to their God. They love each other, they
help each other, and the word hate doesn’t even exist. There would be dinosaurs
roaming the earth because they would have not missed the boat during the flood.
There would be no fighting, nor yelling. No one would know what divorce is, or
what depression feels like. Loneliness would be a foreign concept. Every day
would be spent worshiping and serving the Creator.
Though
the perfect Earth may seem like a fairytale, the reality is that one day we
will be taken to the perfect world. We only have to endure the heartaches and
pains of this world for a few years. There will be a day with no more pain, no
more fear, and no more sin. We will see our Heavenly Father and spend our days
worshiping His majesty. Christ is coming to take His children to the perfect
world that He has created.
