A Minyan of 10 WINS

Give Him 22 minutes, and He'll give you the world!

Have you davened 3 times today?
There are 24 in a day, right? That gives us plenty of time to do everything we want. Between sleeping, eating, and working, we should be able to find just a little while to thank the One who has given us the means to everything else - Hashem. All He asks for us is that we spend some time with Him three times a day. In total, this should take an hour and half on average. Using advanced mathematical skills, that leaves us with 22 and a half hours for us to fill.
Shacharis, even on a Monday or Thursday, takes approximately an hour.
Mincha? About 8 - 10 minutes (although there are those who would appreciate a bit longer!)
That leaves us with the third tefillah of the day. At this point, I hope that you're not scratching your head and asking, "Huh? There's a third one?"
Ma'ariv. The one at night.
Remember?
I hope so.
Out of the hour and a half, we're left with - about 22 minutes.
All He asks is three times a day. Remember? Can we give Him that much?
Hasn't He given us enough to deserve at least that?
He's given us the world. All He asks is for us to show our appreciation for it!
Have you davened Ma'ariv tonight?

Say to yourself ten times today:
"Today, I will thank Hashem for everything I have in life!"
