“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 . “If a man is ill and he recognises his ailment, his healing will be easy. If he confesses his pain, he draws nigh its cure. The pangs of the unyielding heart will be multiplied, and the patient who resists his physician amplifies his torment. There is no unpardonable sin, save the unrepented one.” St Isaac the Syrian #repentance #confession #forgiveness #fastoftheNativity #Advent #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
