The widow's mite refers to "giving one's all." Should I ever have a chance for reflection on my death bed, that is, I don't have a sudden death experience, what will I wish I had given more of myself to? I wish I had spent more time in the gym? I wish I had spent more time on the internet? Amassing an empire? A hobby? The golf course? Jogging? Writing blogs? No, I probably would say, "I wish I had given myself more time at prayer," since it does seem that I might very well be on the way out of this life as I know it. I would rather not have such regrets on my deathbed. I'd rather be content, free from fear, knowing that I did give myself to that prayer time. So I had better get off this computer. I keep my blogs short so you can have more time for prayer, should you so choose.
