How do I confess to a priest when I'm so ashamed of my sins?

I have confession tomorrow, I used to be very dirty and evil.

I envied people, I tried to hurt them. I've been ungrateful, I've questioned God's existence, I've had blasphemous thoughts about God, I've hated my dad and wished death upon him when I was younger. I've been a thief, I've talked shit about people I love to others online, I haven't listened to my parents, I have masturbated ever since I was 5 years old (Not anymore), I've been a manipulator and manipulated my siblings, I did witch craft and got tarot card readings (I watched these type of youtube videos where they say "Pick a card" and you know how it goes). I did love spells on a guy a liked, I pretty much saw him as a god, he was my main priority in life. I contacted a witch to cast a beauty spell on me because I was so insecure and I felt so ugly. (The spell didn't work though, it made me feel worse and it made me ever more depressed). And here are the sins I'm most scared of confessing. I used to watch porn when I was 10-13. A lot. Like A LOT.

I first came upon porn when I was 10. I came across a youtube video where there was two women who talked about oral sex, I didn't know what it was and didn't fully understand it, but I did masturbate to it since they kind of showed how it worked but with clothes on.

When I was younger (5-10) I used to masturbate while thinking about people making out or watching videos of people making out.

When I was a little older (12-13) I was too scared to watch humans having sex so I watched animations. It was furry porn and I watched horses and dogs mate.

Then I started to watch human porn, including lesbian porn. (I'm not lesbian or bisexual)

I've stopped doing all this and I've asked God for forgiveness, but I don't know how I'm going to tell the priest all this. I'm so ashamed, how am I going to do it face to face with him? And what if he throws me out of church? What am I gonna do then and what am I going to tell my parents?

I need help, I don't know what to do

  • Start with your own prayer.
    I mean this.
    Compile your entire list. Everything you are ashamed of.
    Get naked. Stand in front of a full length mirror.
    *Indict yourself. You are the prosecution lawyer. Accuse the girl in the mirror of everything. That is your Confession.
    *Ask her what she has to say about her sins. Does she want to stop? Id she says "no", then you can't help her right away.
    *If she says "yes", that is repentance.
    *Tell her: "ask G0d for forgiveness and he will grant it without a penalty. Then go and sin no more. You can go to the priest, but you will already feel different. Tell him everything.

    • Thank you, I will try this out!

    • Aside from the naked part (which I don't think is necessary), everything else sounds like solid advice here.

    • @jamie05rhs When you are naked, you have nothing to hide.

  • The job of a true Shepherd of a congregation is to rescue any of the flock from danger if at all possible. Understand this, as well as the forgiveness of sins is based not just on confessing, but on leaving the sins behind. What is past is done, but if you are sincerely and truthfully repentant, our heavenly father wipes out our sins. He does not hold them against us. He tells us that he will take us in even if our own parents should abandon us. You are a living person. Your value is very high. Nothing is too great for God. He loves you even more now that you have realized what was wrong in your life and have turned away from it. Anything you did in your youthful ignorance will not be held against you. If you sin again, don't give up. Keep fighting to do the right thing and know that all have sinned. He blesses us because he wants to, not because we earned it.

    • Thank you so much, I really needed this. This almost made me cry.

    • Many people need this, because the devil keeps telling us we are worthless and God doesn't care. That could not be further from the truth. His greatest quality is love. It governs his wisdom, power, and justice. The way man sees is not how he sees. He knows the heart of a person. He wants to forgive if there is a basis for it. Since you are repentant, he will take you in. But beware the devil. He won't make it easy. Remember that God is greater than our sinful hearts. He alone knows what we could be in a perfect world. I am happy to have given you the comfort which I many times have been given. Here if you need more.

    • Thank you, I really appreciate it and you changed my view of God!

  • Oh you masturbated at 5 to 10? Before puberty?

    Add one more: trolling. It's a sin, but not among the deadly. LOL!

    And that leads to lying. I think it's part of deadly sins that burns in hell. So confess and stop trolling.

    Anyway, G@G is free. Let me be the first to forgive you. You can tell your priest that. Show him my profile so that he knows what kind of forum you're attending.

    Good. Christ like sinners like you. Heavens are full of the likes of you. Good job!

    Happy confession day!

    • I'm not trolling, this is real. I did start masturbating at a young age.

    • If you're real, then no worries. God forgives harlots and brute tugs like Matthew the tax collector. And of course, Paul the persecutor and murderer of Christians was appointed Apostle to the Nations. Not forgetting great sinners like Barnabas who challenged Paul over Timothy and... oh yes, the Leodicians as a nation who did all that God forbids. Hence no worries. If they're saved, so shall you.

    • And if you were thrown out, then rejoice because Christ will take you in personally like he did to Peter, James and John. For many who cried "Lord Lord... we cast out demons in your name..." and Jesus said to them "I never knew you, workers of lawlessness."

  • Become a Protestant. Pray for forgiveness by yourself and be absolved. Then convert back to Catholicism and use the priest for future sins.

    • Never!

  • I would really just chill about it all.

    people have committed far worse sins and have had them forgiven.

    if it bothers you that much, look at a penance of helping those less fortunate than yourself, for say a year.

    God knows what you have done, so you can skip bits with the priest, they have heard it all before.

    • Well it's still required to confess my sins, will the priest kick me out of church? And what penance do you think I should do?

    • Do something for the community, help out at soup kitchens

    • Agree with what Chris said. Confessions don’t need a middle man. Community service is always welcomed. Doing for others is penance enough.

  • Get over the idea that sin is a real thing. It's not.

    • I disagree, but believe whatever you want.

    • Suit yourself. How is it making you happy? You are torturing yourself, letting your life be controlled by an old man in Rome, while I’m living guilt-free.

    • I don't believe that the so called "pope" Francis is the real pope. I believe he's Satanist and only here to destroy the church. How is it making you happy that when you die you won't exist anymore and that your life is meaningless?

  • The problem is that confession relies on the integrity of the priest, which is not always something that you can rely on...
    I suggest you figure out how this affects your relationship with God first, and find a way to be at peace with it and process it in a healthy way, before you risk making it public. Let me know if you need help with that.

    • The problem is that I don't have the perfect regret. I do regret my sins because I've sinned against God but also because of the pains of hell. I don't know how to love God 100% I'd say now I love God maybe 80 %

    • Do you need help working this out or get some more advice? If you want you can follow/DM me and I can try and guide you through it.

  • The priest is there to help you repent for your sins. You haven't done anything terrible, and you seem repentant. That's a great start. I highly doubt they'll kick you out for confessing and having the desire to repent for your sins. On top of that, I'm sure they've heard worse. Just remember, God can forgive any sin. No matter how great.

    • Thank you I needed to hear that:)

    • No problem.

  • most of those things sound pretty natural and good to me.

    • To me they don't but everyone has different opinions.

    • Not to stop the feeling, but to observe there's a good reason why it exists. Hence directing it to its real constructive purpose, instead towards vice.

  • I'm not religious, but people are flawed. We all make mistakes and the best thing we can do is be a better version of ourselves.

    I don't think everything you've done is necessarily a sin, but it does feel like you're punishing yourself for things you've already punished yourself for.

    Forgive yourself and be more of the person you want to be next time.

    • Thank you I appreciate it a lot, but according to the catholic church and myself I've done a lot of bad sins. Thank you though!

  • Can u make it short and tell me in private.. I can help u out

    • You're just horny, I assume you're not a catholic because you watch porn and you have a naked woman in your profile picture. How are you going to help?

    • Assumptions are not reality. And don't judge a book by its cover. God bless you 🙌

    • Thank you, but you can't be catholic and watch porn, it's a grave sin. Why are you watching porn and why do you have a naked woman in your profile picture if you're Catholic? You're leading other men into temptation with your profile picture.

  • You are holding on way to tightly to all of that shame. Talking to a priest isn't going to make it better unless you can first forgive yourself.

    • It can actually, but thank you!

  • What you need to do is leave the Catholic Church and stop believing in lies like "God" and "sin".

    • No never!

    • Oh well, then you'll remain brainwashed forever.

  • Well as long as you stop and are trying to become a better person. I don't think your family or preist will be to upset

    • Ok thank you!

  • Confessional isn't face to face

    • Ok thanks!

  • isn't that the point of confession?

    • Yes but I'm afraid I'll be thrown out.

    • nahh

  • Come up with better age ranges and the story may be more tolerable.

    • Like what?

  • Confessing of sins is between you and God. A priest can't do a damn thing about them.

    • yes but also no, if you have a priest you need to go to confession

    • Bible says no
