So that you do and accomplish that which, at the hour of your death, you will wish to have done.

May our Lord increase the days of [your] life for many years, and may he grant you to feel, in this present life, his most holy will and the spiritual strength to fulfill it, so that you do and accomplish that which, at the hour of your death, you will wish to have done.”
St. Francis Xavier's letter to King John III of Portugal
from Malacca in Malaysia, June 23, 1549
via the Novena of Grace, Day 1
Yes, please. Going in my prayer journal.
