The Catholic Church has consistently taught that each human life, from the moment of conception until natural death, is sacred and deserves to be protected. Indeed, the right to life is the very foundation of every other human right. For this reason, only when a society safeguards the sanctity of human life will it flourish and prosper.
I wonder if Catholics fully understand the Sacrament of Confession.
I realize that a lot of us do not like going to confession.
My own excuse is that sometimes it feels repetitive. Who else feels this way?

@mellafinger@BetsysUSA1776 This is what a true confession should do to us because we are indeed remorseful for doing that, we confess it and ask God for the grace to live above the sin
@BetsysUSA1776@Simply_Tessy That was me as a brand new convert.....I confessed that sin twice. Gotta remember I had NEVER EVER done Anything like that B4; confessing! Had a long talk w/myself. With God. No more. Asked Him to keep me from going ahead with it; He did. Praise to YOU Lord GOD!
@RobinOg67725708 Again, I think that if we truly understand and reflect on the grace that comes with confession, we would understand that it's actually the effort we put in trying to make sure I reduce the frequency at which I commit a particular sin that truly counts.
@Simply_Tessy Often, I begin praying that I be filled with the Holy Spirit who can then pray with me:
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.
With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”
Ephesians 6:18
How often do we pray for one another?
Just being selfless and instead of praying for yourself, you pray for someone else?
Don't you think Christ would want that?
