Today’s reading is rarely talked about but it seems to be plain in the Bible that God values His creation and with that, His animals. Thinking about heaven, it does not look like we will be bored at all. There will be too much to enjoy while being useful and totally fulfilled. What incentives to live our best life now, no regrets, no reservations. We have one shot at this life which has a huge impact on our eternal life.
“If God were to end history and reign forever in a distant Heaven, Earth would be remembered as a graveyard of sin and failure. Instead, Earth will be redeemed and resurrected. In the end it will be a far greater world, even for having gone through the birth pains of suffering and sin—yes, even sin. The New Earth will justify the old Earth’s disaster, make good out of it, putting it in perspective. It will preserve and perpetuate Earth’s original design and heritage.” - Randy Alcorn, Heaven
