Time For Confession

Lent is the special time to convert, to change your life, to change the direction of your life or to change a habit or two from vice to virtue. Honest Confession is the God given way to be purified by the blood of Christ, and to change. Christ takes away our sins through the ministry of the priest.

Don't be ashamed to go to a priest for Confession during these days. Seek one out immediately, especially if it has been a long time. The bigger the sinner that repents the greater the joy in heaven over his confession. Saint John Vianney used to refer to the long time lapsed sinners as "the big fish!" Be the priest's "big catch" today. Decide to go to Father, your Father, and tell him everything.

Don't be ashamed to go to Confession, no matter what you have done, the greatest shame is to not believe in the boundless mercy of Christ in the ministry of His priests.
