muertos, y su reino no tendrá fin. Creo en el Espíritu Santo,

Señor y dador de vida, que procede del Padre y el Hijo, que

con el Padre y el Hijo recibe una misma adoración y gloria, y

que habló por los profetas. Creo en la Iglesia, que es una,

Benefits of Frequent Confession

The Father rushes to receive us back

It’s Lent! This season provides us as Catholics an opportunity to “repent and believe in the Gospel.” One of the ways we can best do this is by going to Confession, where we have the opportunity to accept the many graces God has in store for us through this beautiful – and often underutilized – sacrament. But Lent isn’t the only time to make Reconciliation part of your schedule. Frequent Confession has so many benefits, including:

1. Confession helps us to better “know thyself.” St. Augustine and countless other saints and doctors of the Church talk about the importance of knowing ourselves well. Through coming to know ourselves better, we realized how fallen we are, and how badly we need God’s help and grace to get through life. Frequent Confession helps remind us to rely on God to help rid us of our sins.

2. Confession helps us to overcome sin and vice. The grace we receive from the Sacrament of Confession helps us combat our faults and failings and break our habits of vice much more easily and expediently than we could otherwise do without the sacramental grace.

3. Confession brings us peace. Guilt from the sins we commit can make us feel all mixed up inside and cause us to lose our peace and joy. When we hear God’s forgiving words to us from the lips of the priest in Confession, a burden is lifted off our shoulders. Sins weigh us down and enslave us, often giving our passions power over us, instead of us having control over our passions. With the healing power of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, we can again feel the peace of heart and soul that comes from being in a good relationship with God.

4. Confession helps us become more saintly, more like Jesus! Jesus was perfectly humble, perfectly generous, perfectly patient, perfectly loving—perfectly everything! Don’t you wish you could be as humble, generous, patient, and loving as Jesus? Saints throughout history have felt that way too, and they have frequented the Sacrament of Reconciliation to help transform them into people who are more like Christ. Little images of Christ—that’s what saints are!

5. Confession strengthen our will. Every time we experience the Sacrament of Confession, God strengthens our will and our self-control to be able to resist the temptations that confront us in our lives. We become more resolute to follow God’s will and not our own whims.

Jesus speaking through his priests The words of absolution in the Confessional are beautiful: “I absolve you from your sins, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Jesus is waiting to forgive you—all you have to do is ask! Don’t miss out any longer on the healing power of Confession…go to Confession this week, and invite someone else too, as part of continuing after “Year of Mercy” called for by Pope Francis.

Article by: Katie Warner, Manager of Communication and Evangelization for Catholics Come Home. 11 Educación Beneficios de confesarse frequentemente \

El Padre corre a recibirnos de regreso Es Cuaresma! Esta temporada nos da a nosotros los Católicos una oportunidad de “repentirnos y creer en el Evangelio.” Una de las maneras que mejor podemos hacer esto es ir a la Confesión, donde tenemos la oportunidad de aceptar las muchas gracias que Dios tiene guardadas para nosotros por medio de este hermoso—y frecuentemente no usado—sacramento. Pero la Cuaresma no es el único tiempo de hacer la Reconciliación parte de nuestra agenda. Confesarse frecuentemente tiene muchos beneficios, incluyendo:

1. La Confesión nos ayuda a “conocernos mejor.” San Agustín y muchos otros santos y doctores de la Iglesia hablan de la importancia de conocernos a nosotros mismos mejor. Por medio de conocernos mejor a nosotros mismos, nos damos cuenta qué perdidos estamos, y cuánto necesitamos la ayuda de Dios y la gracia para poder seguir enfrentando a la vida. La Confesión nos ayuda a recordar cuándo nosotros contamos con Dios para ayudarnos a deshacernos de nuestros pecados. 2. La Confesión nos ayuda a superar el pecado y el vicio. La gracia que recibimos del Sacramento de la Confesión nos ayuda a combatir nuestras faltas, y romper nuestros hábitos de vicio. 3. La Confesión nos trae paz. La Culpa de los pecados que cometemos nos hace sentir que estamos todos enredados por adentro y nos lleva a perder nuestra paz y felicidad interior. Cuando nosotros oímos las palabras de Dios perdonándonos de los labios del sacerdote en la Confesión un gran peso se levanta de nuestros hombros. Los pecados nos pesan y nos esclavizan, a menudo dando el poder de la pasión sobre nosotros, en vez de tener control sobre nuestra pasión. Con el poder sanador del Sacramento de la Reconciliación, nosotros podemos de nuevo sentir paz en el corazón y el alma que viene de tener una buena relación con Dios. 4. La confesión nos ayuda a ser más santos, más como Jesús! Jesús fue perfectamente humilde, generoso, paciente, amoroso—perfecto en todo. ¿No quisieras tú poder ser humilde, generoso, paciente y amoroso como Jesús? Los santos en toda la historia también se sintieron de esa manera y ellos frecuentaron el Sacramento de la Reconciliación para poder transformarse en gente más como Jesús. Pequeñas imágenes de Cristo—eso es lo que son los santos! 5. La Confesión fortalece nuestra voluntad. Cada vez que nosotros experimentamos el Sacramento de la Confesión, Dios fortalece nuestra voluntad y nuestro control para poder resistir las tentaciones a que nos enfrentamos en nuestras vidas.

Jesús hablando por medio de los sacerdotes. Las palabras de la absolución en el confesionario son bellas: “ Yo Te absuelvo de tus pecados, en el nombre del Padre y del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo.” Jesús está esperando perdonarte—todo lo que tú tienes que hacer es pedírselo! No pierdas más el poder de sanador de la Confesión…ve a Confesión esta semana e invita a alguien más también como parte de la continuación del “Año de la Misericordia” llamado así por el Papa Francisco. 12 Articulo por: Katie Warner, Gerente de Comunicaciones y Evangelización para Católicos Vengan a Casa.
