"Wash yourselves clean!" Isaiah 1:16a
We live in a culture that doesn't want you to think about sin. It wants you to believe that there is no harm in sin. The Holy Spirit that lives within each of us convicts us of wrong doing but it is us who must respond. We are given the responsibility to cleanse ourselves of wrong doing. When was the last time you went to confession? In the Catholic faith we have the ability to go to a priest and receive this Sacrament. There is a grace that we receive knowing that we confessed to Jesus and received absolution. It is like the feeling you have after taking a shower when you were at the beach all day. You have been washed clean, there is no feeling like it!
Dear Lord Jesus, Your Holy Spirit within us cries out for help. Our souls feel the pain of sin and seeks to be cleansed. Heal our spirits Lord, bring newness into our souls, wash us clean from all of the impurities of this world and the sin that inflicts pain. You are a loving God and I pray Your Spirit heals the broken hearted. I ask this in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Mary, Mother without sin, pray for us.
