The other day I went to confession, and the priest said something that really struck me. As part of my penance, he asked me to lift a prayer to those who share the same weaknesses as me.
Whenever I approach confession, I feel a great sense of joy in being reunited with our Lord. But I also thought: how great is the mercy of The Lord that he allows us to be united to souls all over the world, through both our own brokenness and healing!
I felt great joy praying for those souls, knowing that I completely understand them and share their weaknesses – knowing that my own simple experience of healing can also be a source of healing for souls all over the world.
Lord, your love truly knows no limits! Teach us to always have confidence in your most infinite and loving mercy <3
