In today’s podcast, we covered Catholic guilt and how Psalm 32 speaks with surprising clarity on the sacrament confession.
Psalm 32
1 Blessed is the one whose fault is removed, whose sin is forgiven.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD imputes no guilt, in whose spirit is no deceit.
3 Because I kept silent, my bones wasted away; I groaned all day long.
4 For day and night your hand was heavy upon me; my strength withered as in dry summer heat.
Selah
5 Then I declared my sin to you; my guilt I did not hide. I said, “I confess my transgression to the LORD,” and you took away the guilt of my sin.
Selah
6 Therefore every loyal person should pray to you in time of distress. Though flood waters threaten, they will never reach him.
7 You are my shelter; you guard me from distress; with joyful shouts of deliverance you surround me.
Selah
8 I will instruct you and show you the way you should walk, give you counsel with my eye upon you.
9 Do not be like a horse or mule, without understanding; with bit and bridle their temper is curbed, else they will not come to you.
10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked one, but mercy surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD.
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous; exult, all you upright of heart.
