Hello everyone!
I just went to confession a couple hours ago and confessed a mortal sin. I confessed the kind and number because that’s how I learned to confess mortal sins.
Anyways, after I confessed the mortal sin I said, “I did not understand how grave my terrible actions were.” What I meant was I knew that it was against our faith and that I could go to hell, but did not realize:
That I could not recieve Communion, I badly hurt my relationship with God, and that it was a very serious matter. Am I forgiven even though I said that I did not realize how grave my actions were but knew it was against our faith and that I could go to hell?
Hope this makes some sense.
 
if the priest needed clarification, he would have asked. If he thought you wre being insincere, he would have told you that he could not absolve you.

be at peace, you are not untruthful if you do not know the extent of how grave an action really is, a lot of people don’t
 
Of course, my friend. You have confessed your sin, that’s all to it. You do not have to say whether you understand the gravity of it or not. Anyway, if Father wanted clarification, he would have asked you. Do not worry about it.

Have a blessed Easter.
 
Wow ! What a confession !
So glad to read / hear - your true repentance !
Be sad no longer 😇 !

As a side note,
“ forgive us our sins, as we forgive those -
who have sinned against us “

Always forgive. Huge part of our Catholic faith.
How often am I to forgive ? Seven times a day ?
( that’s what Peter asked Jesus privately )
