A priest once told me in confession, “You are not your sin… you’re a forgiven child of God.”

[@kerstinpakka2385]

As someone who had an abortion, went through years of suffering and thoughts that I was hated by God and that I was destined for Hell, and now as someone who is a joyful, grateful member of the Catholic Church and who works in a post abortion healing ministry, proclaiming the amazing mercy, love, and forgiveness of God daily...this touched my soul and made me so grateful for this person for having the courage to reach out. Immediately, I prayed a prayer of thanksgiving for them and for what God has planned for them. As Mother said, "The one who is forgiven much is the one who loves much." What a blessing. Thank you for this and all you do.

To the woman who asked this question… you are loved. Not just by Christ, but by all Catholics who TRULY practice the faith. We are called to LOVE the sinner, not the sin. We all recognize that sin is bad, and dangerous to the destiny of our souls, but we are also called to LOVE thy neighbor. Jesus did not condemn the woman caught in adultery and forgave her, and called her to sin no more. By repenting, and sinning no more, Christ’s heart would overflow with joy!

[@rahawa774]

Amen! Dear sister, Thank you for coming to the church and giving us the opportunity to know you and love you xx P.S.I am a sinner too, you know 😔 we’ll both push on past this together xx

[@RicardoReyes]

Lord have mercy on us when we hear a sister or brother that has deep wounds and instead of crying with them and helping them, we judge them. Wow this question was so raw and real.

[@imjustheretogrill9260]

Here’s the thing, I’ve never seen anyone judge someone actually unrepentant. I guess Christianity was very different before the 2000s. If anything, it was too weak and ecumenical while I grew up. People were even afraid to call out sin. Who knows. Just hard to imagine someone spitting in the face of someone like this earnestly trying to seek God.

[@IONov990]

God forbid anyone judge someone suffering like this.

[@glennherron9499]

@@reverendcoffinsotherson5807 You need to stop and consider what you are willing to accept and what you might lose if you do! The Catholic Church claims to have written the Bible. If so why aren't their teachings in it? Mary plays a large part in their faith, why? She is mentioned about twenty times. Only Luke tells the virgin story from Mary's point of view. Matthew tells it from Joseph's point of view. Mark and John don't deem it worth telling! Remove the chapter in Luke, the time Mary abandoned Jesus when He was 12, the time she put our Lord to the test at the wedding, the cross and the upper room she isn't mentioned at all. After Acts 1 she is erased from scripture. The gospels tell the story of Jesus from four different view points four different audiences. They were the first four denominations! The gospels were Jesus teaching the Apostles. The remainder of the New Testament the Apostles are preaching those teachings. Not a single verse is about Mary! Not even a hail Mary from Peter! Jesus never taught the Mary narrative! He on a few occasions told us to not fix on Mary but on God! The Apostles never preached Mary! Our focus is supposed to be on God and God alone! The Catholic Church claims apostolic succession! The ability to forgive sin and to transform a wafer and wine into rubbery flesh and blood! Peter, their favorite Apostle told us in Acts 1 to be an Apostle one had to be present from the baptism of Jesus thru His ascension! This is why when Judas died they only had two who were qualified to replace him. Why not make both apostles? Why did they have dozens of Disciples instead of dozens of Apostles? If it's a one for one how can the catholic church have tens of thousands of Apostles who cannot raise the dead to prove their apostolic authority?

[@limoncellosmith7594]

Yes please do! The Catholic Church is the True Church founded by Jesus. Protestants broke away from the Church in the 1500s. Come home!

[@glennherron9499]

@@limoncellosmith7594 Odd, we are called Christians in the Book of Acts. Where are we called Catholic? What scripture tells us Mary remained a virgin her whole life? That she was taken to heaven? Why is Mary erased after Acts 1... Jesus never pointed us to Mary and not a single writer in the New Testament told us to look to Mary! If Jesus started the catholic church why would He have gone to cross for teachings that the catholic church teach that He never taught?

[@changpahk6595]

only recently came back to the church...i still don't know what i'm going through, what i'm doing exactly, but ever since "i called you by name, you're mine." struck me so hard, my life's been changing drastically, to the degree that i'm just overwhelmed. i have so much to atone for, so many to forgive, so much to change, though, now i can't live without our Lord. every moment i come to realise how miraculous it is, i just beg him to let me walk with him, be with me. i'll pray the lady in the message will embrace the grace, even though i myself know that how difficult it is. but i believe, since he has called her, he won't let her go so easily, as well. and i hope, one day i'd be able to fully accept his love. i'm finally starting to live as a real and alive man. praise the Lord.

[@courtneypollard2770]

This clip had me weeping. Sometimes I feel like Christians need our own Me Too movement so this precious woman doesn’t feel alone. You see me nowadays at the Latin Mass and praying and dressing modestly, but that’s only because Jesus Christ blast Himself into my sad and sinful life and bowled me over with His love. I am not proud of my past sins. Sex? Drugs? Pornography? Yep. Me Too. But have I been pursued and loved and forgiven by our merciful Father in heaven, and been transformed into a new creation? Yes! ME TOO!!!! I’ve struggled with feeling “less than” when I go to church and am surrounded with people who have walked the walk all their life. So maybe it’s important that those of us who have dark sins in the past speak up more so that we know we’re not alone. Mother Natalia is right. Our actions don’t define us, God does. And He calls you His precious child. No matter how the world looks at you, never forget that.

We are in our own personal journey of coming Home to our Lord each with different stories... One common denominator is that we are all loved and all welcomed by our Father💕

[@abbycatherine]

When I want to judge others (and it's sadly often enough), I have to remind myself that I'm a sinner too - that mine may be private but they are still sins just the same. When my sins pain me (and that's also sadly often enough too), I have to remind myself that I don't deserve to sit in the shame of the past. That's what the devil wants me to do. Christ wants me to rise above it and walk into the light. Satan will always unearth the dirt of our pasts, but Christ can use that same dirt to plant the seeds of a beautiful future. What beauty and mercy grows from our pasts is our testimony. It's the testimony of saints, and we can join them no matter our pasts!

[@kirsten8807]

“…but Christ can use that same dirt to plant the seeds of a beautiful future.” Oof! That one will stick with me forever. Thank you.

[@robertchapman6795]

I pray for the best outcome for the woman who gave her story to you! As a cradle Catholic who left in my early twenties and returned in my early 50’s, I used to carry SOOOOOOO much “Catholic guilt”. Turns out I was looking at it all wrong! I was even an Alter Boy right up to around 20 yo, but when I look back, I realise that as much as I always knew and believed. I just didn’t understand! Now, I give myself, both good and bad to Jesus everyday, pray everyday. The Rosary, personal questions for intervention, and put Christ first in as much as I remember to. The more I do it, the easier acceptance of life in Christs love, grace and mercy gets (even though life’s getting harder in many respects). I think it’s because I looked outward for His presence. Now I look inward. I see my sins, past and present and it’s just like a door to my heart is opened and the sin agrees to no longer be present in me. The sin just goes and overwhelming love and peace fills me. It’s incredible. If I told the average person what it’s like, they’d call me a shrink. It doesn’t matter what your sin, repent and mean it. Process your sin through the Examination of Conscience and head down to confession. After 30 odd years away, I felt like the Prodigal Son when I finally went to confession. I’ll stop babbling now! ❤

[@JP2GiannaT]

Welcome home. We want you here. We want you to be healed. You are not your sin, your sin has wounded you and we want to help you heal.

If you fall back into sin as we all do, God's mercy will be there waiting for you. Don't give up even when you fail. Move toward God and He will sustain you and help you. Never give up on God's mercy which is infinite. Your friend and fellow sinner and in Christ's love, Michael

[@deebee9151]

Mother Natalia is such a blessing to us. She is so wise and so empathetic.

[@Inkflight]

I wish more teachers of the Christian Faith, would speak more about the conditions we need to meet, for God to forgive us. I hear many Christian teachers stating that “God forgives you” without saying that we need to repent, and have a contrite heart. We need to *ASK for forgiveness, and be sorry (remorseful) for what we have done, and fully intend to change those ways. “I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to sin no more and to avoid in the near occasion of sin. Amen.”

[@ViewerAnna]

Mother Natalia brought sweet tears to my eyes. Beautiful message. And the perspective she gave on the beginning of Jesus' ministry was some of the most powerful preaching I've ever heard. Thank you!

[@bethpeyton661]

Wow - what a wonderful response to this woman’s suffering.

[@kirsten8807]

Woosh! Both the question and Mother’s answer took my literal breath away. She offered a glorious answer to the most vulnerable testimony couched within a question that I’ve probably ever heard in my entire life. Her walk through her-and the Church’s-perspective on sin and healing is the most truthfully beautiful viewpoint that I’ve ever heard before, and I’m a cradle Catholic who constantly seeks out such things. Thank you, Mother. Thank you for your heart and your spirit. What a blessing! My takeaway: I am coming away from this truly magnificent gift with an even stronger call to offer the gifts of empathy, kindness, and open-heartedness in every moment of my hours. Not just when faced with devastating vulnerabilities, but also when my guard is down. Mother’s answer left me reenergized in my calling to be preemptively gracious. We never know who yearns for grace so, we need to endeavor to offer it up even within a sinner’s silence. This is now my 2023 mission. Sometimes-within a parish-it can feel like we’re in a fraternity rather than a confraternity. We-by “we,” I mean me too-must must must remind ourselves each and every single day that we don’t choose our “membership.” They choose us. We are neither granted the power to select nor to reject. This is quite honestly a difficult thing to remember, especially when we’re in a room peopled by only fellow Catholics. We say we’re welcoming to all-it’s literally posted on every Church billboard outside her doors as “Welcome home”-but then we snicker behind a sinner’s back, both about them as humans as well as their sin; we make those outside of our walls the butt of inside jokes; and we low-key expect them to follow us into the Church already perfect when-as we all so intimately understand-everyone is broken at some point, and healing begins in communion with the Church. Yet, how can we offer the grace of God’s healing if there isn’t a triage for all to enter through? How can we call ourselves welcoming if our messaging outside our walls isn’t also welcoming? Simply, we can’t say we offer grace with one hand whilst snatching a sinner’s dignity away with the other. Perhaps June is a good month to begin exercising such grace to all as we can never know which day will be *the* day for someone who is silently suffering in hopelessness regarding their sin. Blessings to all!

[@theresalewis8665]

What about Jesus?

[@irishandscottish1829]

@@theresalewis8665 what do you mean? Jesus is present in the confessional. It is Jesus that forgives us our sins - the Priest is merely the visual vehicle that Our Lord uses. Remember Our Lord said: “Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” (Matt. 18:18 KJV) We can walk away assured our sins have been forgiven and that we have done a full and contrite interior inspection of all our sins and presented them to Our Lord for forgiveness.

[@aaronclark2599]

Also sounds like the parable of the prodigal son? He says his sin makes him unworthy of being called his father's son. But his father immediately reminds him of his true identity with hugs, royal clothes, feasts, affirmations, etc.

Thank you so much for this Matt and Mother Natalia and for the one who shared. I could not stop my tears from flowing, i too struggle w my own vices and feelings of unworthiness bc of my actions. And I’m guilty for thinking so strongly that my actions whether bad or good define me and how much I am loved. I struggle a lot w the thoughts that I am not good bc of the things I have done. And after hearing Mothers words on our identity of beloved children of the Father, it really hit me and could not stop crying. i know I will continue to struggle in believing my identity as a beloved daughter bc I am weak but by the help and grace of God I will try my best to believe in the truth and keep reminding myself until I can fully embrace that I am good and that I am a beloved daughter of God 🙏🏻 this is a very important message and I hope everyone who struggle w their identity will too come to know that they are a beloved child of God no matter the things they have done, good or bad, peace to you all and God bless 🫶🏼

[@Goretti8201]

I immediately thought of Mary Magdalene... ask her for her help and intercession to see yourself as God sees you. And seek out a good, faithful spiritual director to guide you. Remember what Jesus told St Faustina - let no soul fear to draw near though his sin be as scarlet. Mercy is God's greatest attribute. God bless.

[@dystopian-future]

I love how Mother Natalia says our identity lies in how God loved us into existence. That is so comforting, but at the same time I am not fully convinced because in the Christian faith, especially Catholic and Orthodox, it seems that a ''woman''s"" identity and value/worth lies in her virginity....everything "Virgin Mary this, Virgin Mary that" and then all the Virgin Martyrs who chose death over being raped and how they ascended into heaven as a purel clean virgin. This tears me apart on the inside. As a victim of child molestation and also rape later in my life, I feel valueless and gross and it traumatises me every day to the point of wanting to end my life. The flashbacks are unbearable. I really wish my identity was in God's love for me, not in my being dirty and used up and not pure....but I can not be convinced of what Natalia says. Any encouragement here please? I'm so broken and I need help. Im not a Christian, but I am looking into it because it sounds so amazing, the hope of my pain being gone one day for all of eternity....that's something for me that is worth living for now. Thanks friends.

[@aisherwasher6959]

When I was struggling with unbelief in God (doubting that He was real or that He would care about me if he was real), a friend told me to pray and ask Him to be able to believe. It's worth trying even if you feel silly at first and even if you dont consider yourself Christian. Just asking God to let you understand how your value lies in him and how nothing and no one can limit how precious you are

[@daisyviluck7932]

Thank you for being brave and reaching out. The spiritual journey can be a struggle but you’re fighting the good fight. The assertion that a woman’s identity in Christianity is equal to her virginity is a bit of a caricature. Christianity started in the middle of a hedonistic, pagan culture that held life cheap. The spiritual writers and martyrs at the time had to stand firm in the opposite virtues. However even St Augustine held that rape victims were not to blame. Please, if you haven’t already, please find a good trusted counselor to help you with healing your past trauma FWIW, I’ll remember you in my 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️🕊

[@bok9201]

No one can fully understand the profound pain of the wounds you have sustained, except Jesus. Ask Him to lead you through healing. He will not let you down. As a doctor, I have witnessed many undeniable miracles showing me God's grace in action. I too sustained wounds such as yours, and also survived a stabbing murder attempt by my mother. The 7 Sorrows Rosary devotion was especially healing for me. I badly needed maternal love. Through the daily prayers I gradually came to understand the nature of my wounds and the effect of those wounds (i.e. was it fear of abandonment, sadness, rage, etc ). Healing came like Spring after a harsh Winter. When Mary saved my life in a moment of peril, the perfume of roses surrounded me. That is a fact. Grace comes from Jesus, and His mom can tug on His sleeve and ask for you to receive the healing you need. She can direct the graces you need to you and understands you with a human heart. Prayer begets what it signifies, meaning you and I need to ask specifically for healing. Pray the 7 Sorrows Rosary every day, and ask Jesus for healing. You will conquer the pain and heal the wounds and understand God more deeply than those who were never wounded. You will be amazed at how peaceful, wonderful, and joyous your life will become. Pray and have faith. Take it from someone whose wounds were also deep and who felt hopeless until I prayed for healing with faith. God let me witness events I knew were miracles in the lives of my patients so that I had the faith to know He would listen to my plea for healing. He is there for you, and His mom too! Listen to Father Chad Ripperger on healing of wounds and Our Lady of Sorrows on Tube videos. The answers are there. God Bless you and may you be healed and brought to a life full of joy, in Jesus' Name, with the intercession of Our Lady of Sorrows, Eternal Father hear our prayers! 🙏🙏🙏

[@user-ml5zu6ph9q]

Mother Natalia had a challenge with this one. Fair, since it is such a nuanced topic and she didn’t appear to have much prep time. The sentiments trying to be expressed are this. To the wife: 1. Moving forward even if only inch by inch is progress. It’s ok to feel discouraged, this too shall pass. 2. We are indeed called to be in union with Christ. Look for Christ, Seek him in all things, for he is the way the truth and above all the light. He is the light you will find at the end of your tunnel. 3. Try faithfully not to compare yourself to others, even those you may look up too. Look inward and acknowledge you have your own walk, your own cross to bare, but Christs yoke is light, take it upon you. 4. The past has passed, leave it there. 5. You have an incredible opportunity here to learn kindness to yourself, and others. And gentleness.

We are humans with free will to choose our master only. We can turn away from God to do as we please, let our own will be done. We then become the slave of our own compulsions and desires, leaving us empty and always thirsting. Or we can become a servant of God's will, and be full and never thirsting. A servant should never dare to assume what the Master can or cannot forgive. We may not have a will to forgive ourselves, so let not our will but God's will be done. Become God's servant and have faith in His forgiveness.

Accepting Gods gift of grace and God will do most of the work in your interior. As someone who struggled with sins of the flesh as an older teen after straying from God which resulted in my having a son outwith wedlock I get where the commentator is coming from as I was there. As soon as I accepted Gods gift of Grace everything started falling in place where the shame, anger, self hatred and despair etc of my sins fell away and as I grew spiritually and my love of God increased it meant that instead my sadness grew in what I subjected our perfect Lord to and it’s that sheer level of love I feel from God that makes me determined to never add another wound to our beautiful and perfect Lord telling Him daily I accept any and all crosses He gives me and I suffer it always for Him and hand it all back to Him to use at His will (ie to increase someone’s love of God, to soften a heartened heart, for the holy souls of purgatory etc). When 19 and pregnant I truly believe I had to be subjected to a form of temporal purifying after promising when pregnant that I would bring my baby up in the church and loving God - I faced so many health professionals pushing me to abort my baby and without a doubt without Gods grace working in me I likely would have succumbed to the pressure but I somehow stood up against it (hat is all on God and His graces) despite feeling the sheer pressure they were putting on me to abort. My greatest gift was when I went to confession to confess to Our Lord my sins of sex outwith marriage and pregnancy - the Priest showed me great love and compassion. Yes he did tell me my sins hurt God but he didn’t only focus on that. Afterwards he spoke to me about how Our Lady was a teen mother and while she was graced by God in her pregnancy she is the one who knows perfectly what I am going through being pregnant and that she will lead me to her Son because I didn’t feel worthy to approach Jesus after what I had done despite knowing He forgave me and had so much love for me I could never understand the sheer level of love. He spoke to me about the now blessings to come from the situation I found myself in from my sins - he asked if I promise to bring my baby up in the church and loving God which I said yes. The Priest then told me that Christ has forgiven me and now it’s about moving forward, Christ loves His little ones and that the heavens will be rejoicing at my return to the faith and my promise to bring my baby up loving God and while the action that was bringing my baby into the world was sinful I had repented and it’s about focusing on the good fruit that will come from it. Without that love, compassion and guidance I question whether I would have felt Gods love like I did and whether I would have actually returned to Our Lord. We need to walk with sinners and aid them in their journey - we are not to judge them for that is for God alone and our human judgement of them could be the cause for them to turn away from God which we will then be held accountable for on our own judgement. I pray this commentator realises she is worthy in Christ and loved so much so she can just sit and tell God she accepts His gift of grace and love but can be honest that she needs His love and help for everything to fall into place and for these wounds to be healed. I have suffered from autoimmune arthritis since childhood and spent many years angry asking God ‘what did I do, why are you making me suffer like this’ but once I stopped doing that and instead accepted my suffering I found I was given the graces to cope with it better. On days when I really struggle I cry out to Our Lord telling Him I accept the cross of daily pain, bone deformity and extreme fatigue but right now I’m struggling and need Him to help carry my cross for a bit before I collapse under the sheer burden and Our Lord has always came and helped me for just long enough for me to get past that point. Our Lord will walk with you every step of the way, He will hold you and support you in every step while also healing the wounds in your heart the more you let Him love you. God Bless this woman and her journey towards Our Lord

My priest said the bad stuff is not coming out of you, it’s coming into you, which gave me great hope that I can change with mindful prayers, being with decent, faithful people at church, and studying the Bible.

“as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit; The poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood: Destruction and misery are in their ways: And the way of peace have they not known: There is no fear of God before their eyes. Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; to declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭3:10-26‬ ‭

A dear friend and very holy priest walked into church and was going to hear confessions. After a happy greeting, I was immediately embarrassed and told him that I had some big sins. 😢. He smiled and said… that’s ok because Hod has some big forgiveness! Repent before confession with a whole determination to never repeat that sin! Christ wants our love! Love HIM more than your sin and pray for the grace to overcome them! He can’t wait for you to reconcile with him. In fact holding our sins after being forgiven is a sin!!! It denies the Holy Spirit!
