Things I hope we have in the Era of Peace

I was thinking about this today. It came to me that we might not have Dairy Queen Blizzards in the Era of Peace. I know that is shallow. Its just that I have just recently discovered them. Choco cherry chunk actually came out for valentines day and I tried one late one evening with one of my kids in the car. We had just taken their friend home and it was 'alone with mom time'. I detest McDonalds and all their ingredients, especially their Seattle Best coffee, which I used to drink a lot of. It now has aborted baby fetal kidney cells lines in it. Yuck.  I refuse to do business with them, even for their dollar sundae.

 So, as I was eating one of these blizzards with my kids I thought to myself that this had to be one of the top ten best things to put in your mouth. I actually said a prayer for God to please allow this to be in the Era of Peace. The agrarian society that we will have might include an ice cream machine and electricity. If Dairy Queen plays its cards right and stays on the narrow road instead of the road to Hell, like McDonalds and Nestles and Lipton Tea, Pepsi and a whole host of other companies. I'll even buy stock in Dairy Queen! (like THAT'S gonna be around in the Era of peace! lol)

Other things I was thinking of were toilet paper, ice and the thought of going bra-less was more than agreeable with me. I especially like electric tools. I do not want to try and build a house, barn or whatever without a nail gun and an electric screwdriver. I love my printer to make copies. I remember as a kid helping the teacher make copies with one of those barrel hand cranked carbon copiers. It wasn't as nifty as my printer, and Lord knows I love the written word and would love to make copies all day long to give it to others! 

It will be great however to be the 'old wise one' when it comes to talking to my grandchildren. I can hear them now. You know what a blender is? There actually were stairs that moved?  But the question I long to hear and will especially love to talk about to my grandchildren  is,"Grandma, you actually believed even though you did not see Jesus in the Holy Eucharist? " 

Because during the Era of Peace, we will indeed see Him who is the Bread of Life, as the Eucharistic Lord and Savior of the World. That will be better than a Choco Cherry Chunk blizzard and worth the wait and the pain that we will have to endure until then.
