Day 42: Confession

I cried during my last confession.

Part of the process of my First Communion in 2nd grade, was going through the Sacrament of Reconciliation first. I don't remember the actual confession with the priest, but I do remember practicing what I was going to say to him. "Forgive me Father, for I have sinned. This is my first confession..."

I hardly remember going to my second confession. I don't even know what year.

Third/last time going to confession was during my Confirmation retreat and it was pretty deep. I actually knew the priest, which made me sort of scared to talk to him. However, once I started letting out whatever I needed to say, I became emotional. The comments, advice, and prayer the priest said to me afterwards brought a sense of peace. God Forgives.

Part of Holy Week is going to confession, and I didn't go. Why? Because I'm scared. Haha.

Some thoughts:
1. What do 2nd graders say during confession?
2. Do I have to confess to a priest? Can I just talk to God and tell him myself? Just wondering.
3. I think I should've went today. Dangit.

God,
You answered my prayers quick! Thanks for bringing Jbendo home tomorrow :) May he have a safe flight back.
Thank you a zillion,
KMD.

Stormy weather tomorrow, please dress warm and bring an umbrella! Watch an episode of HIMYM and go to sleep with a smile on yO face. :)
