The hour of our death will come soon; see then how it will be with you in another world; for today a man is, tomorrow he is not. And when he is out of sight, he is quickly out of mind. How dull and hard is the man’s heart who thinks only of the present and does not look for what is to come! You should so order all your thoughts and actions as if you were to die today.
-Thomas A Kempis, The Imitation of Christ

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO OUR READERS
Catholic Exchange is free—but it is not free to produce. Advertising revenue covers only a fraction of the cost to generate reliably Catholic commentary and news, inspiring videos, a selection of the best Catholic blogs, and daily meditations and prayers.
To give us the strength and stability we need, Catholic Exchange is turning to you—our loyal reader—and asking you to become a monthly contributor.
Whether you can give $5 or $25, $50 or $100 each month, please leave something behind so we can continue—and strengthen—this important apostolate.
We are deeply grateful for one-time gifts, but we encourage you to choose “Monthly” on the drop-down menu. Your support will ensure that Catholic Exchange will be here during this most critical moment for the Church and America.
