Father the time of confession, isn't Christ himself present?Of course, he is the one who listens to our confession, We may talk to the priest but
next is always Christ listening to the confession of his child, you understand, I will tell
you something now a true story that happened to me, when I was at the beginning of my confession
as a priest, I was staying on an island, and above me was a beautiful mountain and I could
hear the bleating of the little sheep it was very beautiful, there were I was renting a
house and we had a small church, so one day a shepherdess came and she asked to confess
her sins, she asked my mother is the priest here?
I want to confess, that my mother put her in
the little church I came to and we started, she was standing so I did and started telling
her
mistakes, it was her first time confessing never done before of her mistakes distressing
anxieties
es her temptations, she was a wonderful girl who loved God, and she had a lot of war with
satan and was a pure soul Finally when we finished the confession I said to her, My
little child I want you to know that you didn't say that to me now but to the lord himself,
I know father.
How do you know?
I asked her h is next to you
she says Look at him I thought she said it figuratively, that is to say, that Christ
is in a spiritual way next to the priest, but she said to me Now Father Christ was standing
next to you and also encourage me to say everything to you and smiled to me, I read her the condolence
wish, and I tried to learn more about this girl after she left, from friends and relatives,
I learned that this girl loved god very much but her husband was ungodly, didn't let her
go out to church or anywhere else, so that day, when her husband was far away, manage
to come, saying to me that day she listens to an angelic voice telling to her now go
to the priest to confess all your sins I will never forget this
