Confession Is a Sufficient Remedy

Philothea: Never allow your heart to remain infected with sin for long. Why should we die a spiritual death when we have so sovereign a remedy ready at hand? Make your confession humbly and devoutly every week, and always if possible before receiving communion. By this one act of confession will practice more virtue than by any other. Many who confess their venial sins merely out of habit and custom live their whole life way down by them.
