What is Stopping You from Becoming a Saint?

It may seem too difficult, or even unrealistic, to be a saint
today. The reality is though, a saint is simply someone who has
conformed their will to the Father’s will rather than the spirit of
the age. Fr. Mike mentions three popular mentalities that prevent
us from becoming saints: Our hearts want instant gratification,
while becoming like Christ is a process. Fr. Mike’s advice is learn
to love the process. We like keeping our options open, but becoming
a saint requires giving everything to Christ. We lack a fighting
spirit. A saint needs a willingness to fight the good fight,
especially when the spiritual battle is hardest. Fr. Mike makes it
abundantly clear that the only thing preventing us from becoming a
saint is ourselves, because God’s grace is enough.
