Before going to Holy Confession, one should make a thorough examination of conscience. Unfortunately, many people forget to do this, so that their confession to the By God is often incomplete. What sins at confession must be presented, what should the list of sins be?
Constant haste is not a good companion for a Catholic who wants to strive for the salvation of his soul. Therefore, before confession it is worth "slowing down", devoting a longer moment to analyze your deeds since the last meeting with the confessor. It is worth asking yourself a few questions:
- What light sins did I happen to commit?
- Were and which grave sins were I guilty of?
- How have I managed to work on myself since my last confession so that I don't confess the same thing once again?
What sins for confession are recalled most often during the examination of conscience? Surprisingly many times we lie, for a variety of motives - obviously big lies require confession. Avoiding Mass is also a fairly common sin. Unfortunately, any form of aggression - not just physical, but psychological - is not uncommon, and this too requires confession in the sacrament of penance.
In the course of confessing guilt, it is worth talking to the priest, openly telling him about your weaknesses and which sins in confession you repeat each time. The task of the person giving absolution is not only to forgive in the name God, but also to set the right path, to show a better path for subsequent deeds and actions in accordance with conscience.
