“In confession you not only receive absolution from the venial sins you confess but also great strength to avoid them in the future, light to see them more clearly, and abundant graces to repair whatever damage you have incurred.” — St. Francis de Sales
I personally look forward to my weekly confession precisely because of the points listed above. If you truly love Christ, the small things do matter, and we should all be concerned about keeping this friendship at a high level of intimacy!
