Guest Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) Just got out of Confession. What a blessing. The Priest was great. Maybe I'm saying that because of how soft spoken and kind he was when I know I didn't deserve that. It felt good when he asked me when my last Confession was and I said a week ago. Because in the past I would live with these mortal sins on me for months and months till I would finally humble/force myself to go to Confession and finally not let my shame and fear of Confessing keep me away. The problem was I would be 6 months to late. So it felt good today saying my last Confession was a week ago but I truly had nothing to feel good about being at Confession AGAIN today. I wasn't there because I was being scrupulous and Confessing playing a violent video game. I was there Confessing sins that separated me from God and will send me to hell. I had to find a different Church to go to because I didn't want the Priest to recognize me or my Confession. I went to Saint Polycarp a Parish I had never been to. After I confessed my sins the Priest pointed out in this moment right now I'm one of the Holiest people there is. In this moment I am blame free. He asked isn't that odd? How could this be? After what I just Confessed? These sins just happened this week. How could I be considered Holy? And it's all because of Jesus and what he did on the cross and His love for us. We truly are saved by grace. Edited July 31, 2016 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tab'le De'Bah-Rye Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Please forgive my assumption that you where already trapped by a habitual sin, and I can only speak of my own experience of when you have fallen into habitual sin my experience is you just gotta kis Keep it simple sit down and ride the basics inc confession until the root of the sin is revealed and then you can yank it out. Nothing out of the ordinary to share out of the ordinary Catholic stuff novenas,sacraments etc though you cool try wetting the soil with 1 or 2 alcoholic beverages every 2nd night b4 bed just to ease your mind Lao as when you lay down it is easier to examine your concience as I find sin causes my brain to misfire, though of course such a practice is not ordinary for normal circumstances, pray to the Holy Spirit b4 you search your mind for the answer. This may make the removal of the sin process faster, though continue the ordinary practices of Catholicism while doing this.. Exercise and strength even for a short term and not a permenant thing unless you want to would definitely aid in the solution. Hope that helps. Oh that's right also it is best to avoid habitual sin by practising as much as you can handle that is available to you through Catholicism to avoid prison. I really feel for you though If you have fallen and can't get up. Fellowship will help also or novenas to any of our saints that where bishops(the rook) as when sheep fall over it can be very difficult to get back up. Peace.
