"The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."
Isaiah 11:6
My sister had a baby yesterday. :) Children are an amazing thing... and although sometimes we worry about the pain that they will experience in this world, there are also a lot of very exceptionally good things to look forward to, as the above scripture indicates. :) Even the animals won't be hurting each other. We've adjusted so much to the way things are in this world that I wonder if it will be as easy for us to shed animosity and mistrust as it will be for the leopard to become a vegetarian. :) As we work on making ourselves a Zion people, we will come closer and closer to this day, where hatred and fear are far away, and peace permeates everything. Something worthwhile to pass on to the next generation... hope.
