Examination of Conscience is a reflective practice in which we honestly assess our thoughts, words, and deeds in the light of our faith and values. It's a purposeful self-examination that helps us recognize areas where we may have fallen short or made mistakes. By acknowledging our shortcomings, we open ourselves to seeking forgiveness and growth. This introspective process is particularly valuable before participating in the Sacrament of Confession, allowing us to approach God with humility, contrition, and a sincere desire for reconciliation. These examples can serve as a starting point for self-reflection before Confession. You can tailor the questions to your personal circumstances and experiences.
