well, that is not much to go on, let’s look at the Rule of St. Benedict
Prologue: Let us get up then at long last for the Scriptures rouse us when they say, It is high time for us to arise from sleep. Let us open our eyes to the light that comes from God, and our ears to the voice from heaven that every day calls out this charge: If you hear his voice today, do not harden your hearts. And again: You that have ears to hear, listen to what the Spirit says to the Churches. And what does he say? *Come listen to me, sons: I will teach you the fear of the Lord. Run while you have the light of life,that the darkenss of *death may not overtake you. . . . If we wish to reach eternal life, even as we avoid the torments of hell, then–while there is still time, while we are in this body and have time to accomplish all these things by the light of life–we must run and dow now what will profit us forever.
