It is Good Friday.. And For Catholics and all over the Globe give respect to this day. God died on the cross for the forgiveness of our Sins.. But when was the last time you ever confessed yours and felt sorry for it. The last time I confessed was last month, And the priest made me cry by telling me : You have all the time in ths world to do every single thing, and you have so many hours to thin of yourself but why did you wait for 8 long years before you confess your sins. I was crying when i went out of the confession box. After I confessed what I did but what a great feeling when I finally tell the burden that was eating me up or so long. I know not everyone in Mylot are Catholics.. I just want to share this for those who haven't been there and confessed their small small evil things. From being judgemental to others, steal things, lying or not keeping the sabbath day HOLY. Lets repent for our sins as God gave himself to die on the cross for the forgiveness of our own fault.

HI there... If your asking me the last time i confess with my sins to Jesus Christ and priest is His bridge... I don't remember it anymore but directly to God I always do... I always thank Him for the blessings and help me to guide my daughter... Everytime i go to church and confess about my sins... it makes me cry and accept my wrong doing...

I am not a religious person and never let myself be made to feel guilty by others who think they have the right to judge me or try to force me to confess about what they interpret as sinful. I live an honorable and respectable life and do all that I can to be humane to others. I am only human. I am not perfect. I accept myself for the person I am. I make no excuses for it and I answer to no-one.

I do my best not to sin and when I do they are 'small ones' but I normally will confess that sin the minute I do it. I'm not Catholic so don't go to 'confession' but I will lift a prayer to God and ask Him to forgive me in private. My great sins are jealousy and anger (I get jealous of people who have more than me monitarily and I get angry with people who do things wrong).

well I try to remember to confess my sins every night with a brief examination of conscience before I got o sleep - and also make an act of contrition... but the Sacrament of Penance we tend to make once every 3 weeks. We are fortunate that our Confessor is very much the lamb in the confessional - gentle and kind and always with thoughtful advice.

I am christian (orthodox) but Confession is not a major part of our religion. You can do it if you want but it is not that strict. We fast to repent (fasting is when we can not eat, meat, fish, eggs, milk, oil or anything that has any animal product in it) and usually the fast is for 6 weeks. During that time we pray for forgivness. I belive god is everywhere and I dont need a priest to listen to my sins and to tell me I am forgiven. But I respect those people that belive differently than me.

Maybe I need a definition of what a SIN is....I don't need to confess anything...I don't do anything wrong....at least I don't feel I do.....I would go in the confession box and say what??? I would have nothing to say...
