Cool post from Stacey :)

This is a cool post I got from my friend Stacey. Good works follow good faith and God's grace. Good works alone will not get us into heaven. The two go hand in hand, and its Gods grace in which he sent our Lord Jesus Christ who is our Savior.
Confession is all about Gods grace, Jesus forgives our sins. Frequent Confession heals the soul and keeps us humble. "I have sinned through my own fault, in what I have done and what I have failed to do" When we recite this we admit our wrongdoings and then ask for our brothers and sisters to pray for us.
It is through Gods grace that we can be there for each other!
God bless you all and thanks again Stacey ! :)
