Thank you – I went and I can honestly say that I got very emotional when I received communion. I felt good for the first time in a long time. It’s weird because after I left confession this afternoon, I still felt guilty for my sins. Almost like as if I still had this huge “pit” in my stomach. My shoulders still felt heavy…
AWESOME!!! God loves you so much!!!
you just put a smile on my face - May God Bless you!
All he said was read 2 Psalms everyday. I’m guessing till I’m done reading them. Of course, after I’m done, I will read them time and time again because I want to feel and immerse myself in the Word of God.
Yes, Grace was with me. I can’t explain how hard this was. I pray the rosary everyday and it’s incredible how much I feel our beautiful mother’s presence. Something or should I say someone was pushing me to go to confession and I know it was her. This is her way of bringing me to her Son. The priest read a passage to me from Luke (The Prodigal Son) and then told me that I was the daughter and that all the Angels and Saints are celebrating and having a feast!!! It feels so good to have such a warm, peaceful heart. Full of content and joy. I know God is with me now.

Isn’t it wonderful to just let go of all the ugliness that we hold on to for so long. We torture ourselves because of the guilt and shame of having to confess all of our sins. A dear friend of mine today told me that when we feel guilty and ashamed of our sins “pray to Jesus to heal the scars of your sins”. Very well said!I went to confession tonight and attended the evening mass too! :dancing: It gives me joy to read your story.
