Growing up in a diocesan
parish I made my first reconciliation before First Holy Communion. After that
first confession, I don’t really remember a time that confession was really
talked about again. Now, living with the Salesians and adopting Salesian
spirituality as my own I have come to see the beauty and value of this
sacrament. As Catholics we generally fear going into the small chamber and
owning up to our wrongdoings. Why? Our God is merciful, forgiving, and
compassionate. Above all He is a loving God. The sacrament of Confession is a
gift to us. Providing is with the chance to be born anew, to begin again…white
as snow.
