Whenever you feel guilty, even if it is because you have consciously committed a sin, a serious sin, something you have kept doing many, many times, never let the devil deceive you by allowing him to discourage you.

    Beautiful talk. It reminded me of a co-worker who hasn’t been to confession for over 25 years because he was “yelled at” during his last confession. Please pray for him to “come back home”.

    God bless you Father John Paul and you to John.

    Always look forward to your talks to help my faith, hope and charity because I am sure in desperate need of it on a daily basis to help carry my cross.
