Ever felt like living a holy life should be easier than it is? Fr Columba unpacks a line from St Francis de Sales that stopped him in his tracks: a devout life is easy, delightful, and desirable. Drawing on the plain image of building a habit at the gym, he shows how virtue starts hard and becomes easy, and how our own self-sabotage, not just the devil, keeps us stuck. His practical challenge: stop overthinking it, pick the one thing you already know you need to do, and just do it, imperfectly, every single day for a month. This is an invitation to trust that God's grace, not your own willpower, is what makes holiness possible.
