look for new heavens and a new earth

It is 2:35 PM Wednesday afternoon. Today I left the house and visited thrift stores to look for used books to ADD to our library. I found these used books today-

"The Wilderness World of John Muir" Edited by Edwin Way Teale

"The Oregon Trail" by Francis Parkman

"Best Short Stories Of Jack London" by Jack London

"The Twenty-Seventh City" a novel by Jonathan Franzen

"Once Upon The River Love" a novel by Andrei Makine/Translated from the French by Geoffrey Strachan

"Celebration" a novel by Mary Lee Settle

"The Watershed: A Biography of Johannes Kepler" by Arthur Koestler

"A Diary Of The Century: Tales From America's Greatest Diarist" by Edward Robb Ellis

In the mail I received a used book I had ordered titled, "An Artificial Wilderness: Essays On Twentieth-Century Literature" by Sven Birkerts.

It has been a normal day thus far. I am not in the mood to write anything. Plus my arms and hands hurt so I will close to wait it out. Existence keeps zooming by.

"[9] The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
[10] But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
[11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
[12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
[13] Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
[14] Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless." Second Peter 3:9-14
