It’s easy for us to imagine that the Garden of Eden was all rest and play with no work. Subsequently, our idea of heaven can easily be all cloud-snuggled naps and angel wings. Although there is a promised peace that is coming with Christ’s return and the new heavens and new earth, I don’t believe it will be void of work. We are created in the image of God, and that includes working. He works—he creates, he moves, he watches, he protects, he provides, he works miracles. The psalmist even writes that he does not slumber or sleep (Psalm 121:3-4). He is an active God, and his movement is creative.
