Practical devotion of the day: managing time well

Truth known, but not appreciated. How many times do you complain that the hours fly by, that the months pass, that the years press on? ... The year seems a dream, the past life ... there is no time for a thousand things ... Everyone knows and says that time is short, that this is the last year of life ..; but who is upset about it? Myself, what do I solve, what do I do so as not to lose it?

Time on the verge of death. To think about the soul, to judge, to overcome a passion, to correct oneself one always hopes to have time; but what will we say, in the last moments, when with our hands empty of merits, in the imminence of total reckoning we will ask the time, the doctor, the relatives, a. God himself an hour that will be denied us? Are you preparing yourself for such a disappointment?

Time in the face of eternity. A few years are enough to reach Paradise, to be able to enjoy, praise, love God with the Angels and with the Saints, and be happy forever; but even a few, if badly spent, are enough to deserve a hell, with torments, with hatred, with chains reserved for demons ... And if eternity came for me today, how would it find me? Can I console myself for the past time?

PRACTICE. - Remember the proverb: "Time is gold" Fruits for you riches for eternity
