A Photo That Reminds Me of a Promise


This is only one of many photos that give me the warm fuzzies. When I see these photos, it helps me to see the reality of what life will be like when the whole earth is a paradise, with no wickedness, sickness or hunger or even death, ever again. God has promised it, and he has never, ever broken a promise.

The Bible is full of his promises that have already been kept, as well as those which are still to come in the not too distant future.

Isaiah 11:6-9:
"6 And the wolf will actually reside for a while with the male lamb, and with the kid the leopard itself will lie down, and the calf and the maned young lion and the well-fed animal all together; and a mere little boy will be leader over them. 7 And the cow and the bear themselves will feed; together their young ones will lie down. And even the lion will eat straw just like the bull. 8 And the sucking child will certainly play upon the hole of the cobra; and upon the light aperture of a poisonous snake will a weaned child actually put his own hand. 9 They will not do any harm or cause any ruin in all my holy mountain; because the earth will certainly be filled with the knowledge of Jehovah as the waters are covering the very sea."

Revelation 21:4, 5:
" 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true.” "
