The best of all possible creations

There is nothing in the Bible (that I am aware of) to suggest that God created the best of all possible creations even before the fall. It is not a stretch to assume that we, currently, do not live in the best of all possible creations now because the narrative in Genesis 1 and 2 points to a better one. But what of His creation before Genesis 3?

Will the best of all possible creations be achieved when he brings about the new heaven and the new earth? Or will He reserve creative acts that will be engaged in after this cosmos has been remade? Or will He simply be done creating? I can't see this happening because, for some reason, He seems to have a drive to create and re-create. Just like I do.

These questions popped into my head yesterday. It seems to me that I need to find my rest, more and more, in questions rather than answers. Is it intellectual laziness that finds me resting there or extreme faith? I don't even want to answer that.
