Confession
For me, myself I am a Roman
Catholic from the Catholic church. I beleive in the
Catholic church, everything about
it , but am not very active. The church is the mysticl body of
christ and is a vast body of
celestial divinity on the earth.It showcases huge monuments,made from
the vision to bring heaven to
earth, and what burns within is a bigger special event of the passion
which headlines the creation of
the church besides the vast mount of knowledge that the
church has to offer.
From the vast knowledge that the church has to
offer, I'd like to talk about
the sacraments and one sacrament
in particular - the confession.The sacrament of mercy,
the joy of reunion with god in
purity, and to swim in the waters of peace unstained
from the creature called sin.
I'd like to talk bout it through life
experiences and how I came to understand the value of this
sacrament - and how it is
required in today's times.This is the time I was a teenager, and
I wanted to explore life and see
new things in life.I wanted to see the stars,and the skies and
travel.
Youngster's hope, i guess? The experience
was a little mixed up,some good and some of it bad.
The good part was the freedom
that I got as a indiviual to break off from the clasp of my parents
who monitored my every move,and
get the freedom of living my life.My freedom which I utilied to the
maximum advantage. Thought i
didnt drink or smoke, I got into another addiction.
The addiction of gaming - I used to play a lot, and it was great at the
time and the start was
great, but later on I discovered
once I would bunk my classes and just sit playing games the whole
day.There was a phase when I just
got addicted to it,and by the time I found I was addicted, my
final exam for the year hd come
up, and I failed the year - my first failure.
There was one thing I had done at the time - I
stoppped going to church, and while I stayed away
from church and got involved in
this addiction, ileft something tht I would call a "spiritual
dryness" in my life.A
hopeless feeling even if nothing was wrong.
I had abused my freedom and my conscience pricked me. The guilty
conscience brought this dryness
in my life.the Probbly as my sins
were burning me, becuse I lied, I bunked college and never took
any interest in my studies, and
wasted my parents hard earned money ,and spent the pocket money given
to me for these addiction of
gming nd other pleCONFESSION
For me, myself I was normally not
an active parishioner of the Catholic church. I beleive in the
Catholic church, everything about
it , but am not very active. The church is the mysticl body of
christ and is a vast body of
celestial divinity on the earth.It showcases huge monuments,made from
the vision to bring heaven to

hopeless feeling even if nothing ws wrong.
I had abused my freedom and my conscience pricked me. The guilty
conscience brought this dryness
in my life.the Probably as my
sins were burning me, becuse I lied, I bunked college and never took
any interest in my studies, and
wasted my parents hard earned money ,and spent the pocket money
given to me for this addiction of
gaming and other pleasures.
These things depressed me to a major extent, and an uneasiness
discomforted me.It was only when i saw
my failed marksheet for my FYBsc
( becuse i had never failed in any class before) and had completely
broken down that God decided to
releive me.
After a year, I decided to go to church for some peace in my stressed
mind and that is where a
priest was sitting down at the
confessional. So I just went to him,and confessed it all, and felt
a liberation from the negative
bad side that had dragged me down.The priest was christ who pulled
me from the abyss.
When I talk about sins - there are two kinds of sin, mortal sins and
venial sins.Mortal sins
are of a heavier nature, also
called grave sins while venial sins are of a lighter nature.
I have been going to confessions
regularly since then because I know what a favor I am doing on
myself with God’s precious
sacrament of mercy.
I realized the value of this sacrament much later and how essential it
is in today's world, when
I see people swimming in the
filth of their sins - jealousy,anger, lust, betrayal and a constant
fight to compete and pull people
down.The world feels like a hen house, and roosters crowing and
fighting for a handful of gold.
The devil gains his power from these sins and holds his grasp on the
people commiting these sins.
Sin is like a snake, injecting
it's venom in your spirit and killing
the life and the light that we
are supposed to present.
People take a bath everyday to clean their
bodies, but what about their spirit? How do you clean your
spirit?
The people I met tody exhibit properties liked mood swings, imbalanced
emotions, lack of courtesy nd
it feels as if a higher power
acts over them, which has been observed in my personal experiences, but I
am sure it may be experienced
generlly.
That is the reson there is the need of
confession, and also exorcism because Satan holds a better grasp
over the souls who are sinning.
There is a need to constntly go to confession
to throw off the arms of the devil round your neck and also
becuse we have a tendency to sin,
being sinners and due to original sin.
Confession is the protection against demons who wage a war every single
second to pull your soul into
hell nd christ is your saviour
standing between you and them.Confess and be cleaned to be a pure spirit.
As i write this article, i wonder how god is just being with the amount
of sins that are commited on a
daily basis while we sit sinning
peacefully.
