Father Ricardo Sada shares reflections on 45 years of hearing confessions

Father Ricardo Sada, a priest of the Prelature of Opus Dei and a doctor of theology, has shared observations from his 45 years of spiritual direction and hearing confessions. He noted that many people find it difficult to accept God's forgiveness even after receiving absolution.

Sada observed that while people seek peace, they often struggle to find it through temporary solutions. He stated that true happiness requires a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. He also noted that the mercy of God remains an open door for everyone, including those who struggle with difficult habits, shameful faults, or long periods of absence from the Church.
