REFLECTION OF THE DAY
Cause of all evil.
Sin is the cause of all evil. So we should not ever sin, because sin we get within reach of the devil, and can intervene in our lives and bring concerns, complications, sufferings and misfortunes of every kind. And everything comes through sin.
If you have the misfortune to commit a mortal sin or serious, we have to stay for a moment in that sorry state, but we must make an act of perfect contrition, that is, apologize to God for His sake, because we have offended and He is so good, and make the firm intention of going to confession with the priest soon. So if we do so, we'll be in God's grace and if we die in that state will save us. Of course, until we confess to the priest, we can not receive the Eucharist. But at least if we die in that span of time, we will not go to Hell.
If we saw what a sin, if we could see with our bodily eyes the ugliness of a soul sin, there never would sin, and horror the child would sin. But as we see, we do not measure the danger and evil of sin, and its ugliness.
Let us ask God to give us the grace to understand one bit what it means and what is sin. And to get an idea, think how terrible sin must be, to have brought Jesus to suffer and die that way!
