I certainly have the personality for it - the kind that Jen at Conversion Diary so eloquently described the other day. I'm sure that's why God set me on another path: if things were too easy for us we'd never learn anything!

I want to die for Jesus so everyone knows how awesome I am--and so I don't have to live for him. I'm pretty sure I could be holy for 5 minutes. The prospect of being holy for the next 60 years is a little more daunting. What I'm saying is, I doubt I'll ever be martyred--I'll probably live till I'm 120.Meg Hunter-Kilmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07633047750577713713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892257991211216961.post-3632782382473986342013-05-03T22:24:06.534-06:002013-05-03T22:24:06.534-06:00I'm with you, my friend!

I'd like for someone to come up to me and make me chose between my God and my life and for me to look them in the eye and say: " No contest." Okay, I can only hope and pray I would be so brave, but I really am inspired by them. Makes being a Catholic these days seem a lot easier.<br /><br />Great post!
