You Better Be Ready Cause He's Comin

"The Lord isn't really being slow about His promise to return,
as some people think.  No, He is being patient for your sake.
He does not want anyone to perish, so He is giving more time
for everyone to repent.  But the day of the Lord will come as
unexpectedly as a thief.  Then the heavens will pass away with
a terrible noise, and everything in them will disappear in fire,
and the earth and everything on it will be exposed to
judgment.
Since everything around us is going to melt away, what holy,
godly lives you should be living!  You should look forward to
that day and hurry it along--the day when God will set the
heavens on fire and the elements will melt away in the flames.
But we are looking forward to the new heavens and new
earth He promised, a world where everyone is right with
God.  
And so, dear friends, while you are waiting for these
things to happen, make every effort to live a pure and
blameless. life.  And be at peace with God.
And remember, the Lord is waiting so that people have
time to be saved. (2 Peter 3:9-15a) NLT
