I CONFESS to Almighty God, to the blessed Mary, ever Virgin, to blessed Michael the Archangel, to blessed John the Baptist, to the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and to all the saints, that I have sinned exceedingly, in thought, word, and deed, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore I beseech the blessed Mary, ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, blessed John the Baptist, the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and all the saints, to pray to the Lord our God for me. May Almighty God have mercy on me, forgive me my sins, and bring me to everlasting life. Amen. Just felt I needed to say and share that with you all my brothers and sisters. Keep me in your prayers
Will do John…I thought this a beautiful, sincere and identifiable post. God send His precious angels to raise you up! You are a good and faithful servant who needs confirmed in your goodness. God bless you.
Praying for you John tonight and at Mass tomorrow. Married life and family are such huge vocations, especially at the minute when they are under siege so much. Any way praying.
Will light a candle for you at Our Lady of Perpetual Help tomorrow. Prayers! You are a blessed man. Courage!
But then it can also be very easy to hide behind excuses for not being totally loyal to Christ or letting him down by sinfulness, sometimes we have to strip it all back and realise how pathetic hypocritical creatures we can be, after all when I stand before Christ its just me and him no one else.
We will all walk that path John…because we are humans with original sin. Even the saints sinned….and it’s why we all need confession. You are humble enough to see what others refuse to….that plank in our own eye. Just give it to God.
John you were so kind to me when I joined this forum and stumbled with my input on various subjects. While I don't log on often I read and learn everyday from those here. I pray you have enduring strength and peace only God can give. Thank you!
