“Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’? But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins” – he then said to the paralytic, “Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home.” He rose and went home.” Matthew 9:5-7. St. Augustine said, “In failing to confess, I would only hide You from
myself Lord, not hide myself from You.”

Let us pray, Lord Jesus, You have all the power, even to forgive sins. We are sorry for all the sins we commit. Grant us the humility to come to You, through Your priests, to confess our sins; for purification and healing. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
