You can’t beat this–a wise and kindly dog, four baby bunnies who think the dog’s their mother, and a friendly parakeet. All they need is a benevolent iguana. And all of them cuddling on somebody’s bed. I believe this is a glimpse of what God has in store for us: “They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain” (Isaiah 11:9).
I believe you are right. The peaceable kingdom will be so wonderful. These critters are wonderful to see.
Romans, chapter 8 tells us that all creation has been affected by the fall of mankind. I feel real sorrow that the animal kingdom has suffered because of events which are not their fault. When I see things like this, I can see that an animal kingdom completely at peace would be a marvelous thing.
I wish my dogs were this gentle with bunnies. Instead we ended up having to keep a bedroom closed for years to keep our pet bunny separated from the dogs.
Maybe it has to come naturally.
