All members of the Church, including her ministers, must acknowledge that they are sinners.Reflection: What could be more difficult than living in the constant tension of striving to be holy, but admitting that we are sinners? It is a tightrope walk between arrogance and discouragement. The virtues of faith, hope and love show us the middle way and the best way.
- CCC No. 827
Prayer: Father of all truth, help us to see ourselves as we truly are, and to rise above the limits of our human condition.
