Death - judgement - heaven - hell. Death is a big sister to us. "Only unloving children don't long to meet their parents." We live in order to die; Jesus shows us how to live well, so we can die well. The approach of death is the best time in our lives - God is very close to us and we hasten to meet Him. God wants us to be with Him after death - God wants us to die a saint - and will give us every opportunity to do so.
The devils are also very attentive as death approaches. But we don't listen to them.
Reflecting on our own death helps us appreciate the value of time. How many hours wasted on TV or putzing around on the Internet! We must value time and use it well - with our family, at work, with our friends.
Reflecting on our death helps us be charitable. When you leave the house, or leave anyone - know that you might never see them again. Never part with harsh words or unkind thoughts.
