B'chol Meodecha Real Commitment

Sometimes we need to give up something other than our lives for the sake of Hashem. Imagine that in order to avoid doing an aveirah, you would have to give away all your money. If your boss insists that you work for him on Shabbos, the halacha requires you to forfeit your job. This is what is meant by bechol meodecha, with all of your wealth.

When we say these words, we must make up our minds to do this if called upon to do so. If we mean it sincerely, we will be credited with the mitzvah, even if the nisayon never arises for us.
