Life is short. At the very moment of our death, we are judged according to the way we lived. In this book, Dom Pius Mary Noonan shows that it is a divinely revealed truth that the limited time of this life is given to us in order to choose God and save our soul, and that when the hour of death has come, our fate is decided. There are no second chances after death, so we must be prepared now to meet our Maker. The best way to have a happy life is to be prepared at all times for a holy death.
