- How to confess correctly. How to prepare for confession?


- Do not make this unnecessary complexity. Sometimes they come to confession and say: "I don't know where to start." Yes, at least with something, just start. And there is no need to prepare any special confession. Look at your heart: what bothers you, what sins you have on your conscience, talk about those. And you say to God like this: “Lord, of course, I cannot, because of my blindness, see everything that is in me, today I saw only this. Of course, I am guilty that I do not see everything, but You help me to see even more next time. " Do not try to express everything at once. It won't work, but there will be embarrassment. And embarrassment is very bad. Don't be embarrassed, be light, joyful. Those who have confessed should go from confession with joy.
