"Lord, it's hard to be holy."

Yup!  Sometimes it really is!  And sometimes we aren't very good at it.  Just look at Peter.  He denied Jesus three times and was named the first pope!  We sometimes deny Jesus too, but Jesus' love and mercy for us overpowers those times and makes us holy just like the apostles!  Can you turn to someone and say, "Truly, this IS the Son of God?"
