Hi CAF,

Tonight is my baccalaureate. Since freshman year of high school, though, I have told tons of lies about traveling (weirdly). Now, I only converted to Catholicism one year ago, and since then, have been better (though still did/do fall many times). I have confessed this many times (going every week). Since my family will be with me tonight, I am scared stiff that I will be discovered, yet at the same time, I know what I did was terrible. I have to tell myself don’t be so hard about it, since I have confessed it and received absolution. How should I react if I do, or what do I do?

Please do not just say, “you’re wrong” or “don’t worry about it”. I know that this was wrong, and I can’t help but worry.

Thanks,
Latinitas

If you think that your family will find out tonight, maybe you could explain this to them? We all struggle with sin during our walk with Christ. 🙂
 
Truth will out.

But you have already been forgiven.

So everyone makes mistakes,let it go into the past & try not to make any more 🙂

If anyone says anything say well you made it up. What’s the worse that can happen? You already confessed that to God!

Start again every day+
 
Just be honest and say you had a period of time you told some “tall tales” and that was not true. Short sweet and to the point. Everyone has sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God.

Thanks for the advice!

Baccalaureate is over (it was not that good).
