Harder Than Hell
The goal of every Christian ought to be to love more perfectly-and ultimately to get to heaven.  It is literally harder than hell to get to heaven.  It cost Jesus his life to open the gates, and it will cost us the same.  If our goal is heaven, we need to have a plan to see that this happens.  I believe our immediate goal should be to live a holy life.  What a tragedy if we as Christians don't become holy; holiness is what we have been created for.  And to be holy, to grow in our relationship with Christ, we must have a tangible plan. -Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR
