Chapter 11 describes what seems to be a utopia where the wolf and the lamb are together, the leopard and the goat, calf and lion, cow and bear are all together. A child will play over the hole of a cobra and a child will put his hand on the adder's den and will not be stricken.
Then in verse 9 it gives away the secret to this utopia. It says, "For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord..."
This makes me wonder how much I know the Lord. I do not see myself with a peace like that yet. I believe that it may come and I thank the Lord for a peace that only comes from Him. I will continue to strive for knowledge of the Lord and with that, the peace that comes through Him. What an amazing God I serve!
