confessional question
All right, this may be a little personal, but…
I have always disliked confession. I suppose that’s normal human nature, to dislike telling a total stranger what we’ve done wrong and actually having to own to it. Hence the necessity of confession for conversion and all that. But still. I have a disinclination for the sacrament. But, I went last week, since I hadn’t been in, oh 16 months.
Now here’s a question. Once you’ve confessed sins, you’re forgiven. (well, OK, once you do your penance, technically). But what if you still feel bad about it? No, I haven’t done anything bad (well,OK, that bad. Obviously it was bad if it was confessed, right?). Anyone else ever felt this way? What did you do about it?
