Confession
Through this sacramental act of the ordained priest and the Christian believer we have the assurance of divine forgiveness, according to the words of Christ (Jn 20:23).
We often find ourselves like frogs being boiled, without realizing it. We become accustomed to carrying around the burden and effect of our sins and forget that relief and forgiveness is possible. In the sacrament of confession we lay our burdens at the feet of our Lord Jesus and beseech His love.
"A broken and humbled heart, I will not despise" (Psalm 50)
