God knows what you need to confess. Before making a confession, take a moment in prayer to seek his guidance as you examine your conscience:
Dear Holy Spirit,
help me to make a good confession;help me to know my sins, be truly sorry for them
and commit to never sin again.Have mercy on me, O Lord, and forgive me.
Mary, my mother, Pray for me. Amen.
