I have sinned. Oh my God, have I sineed!!!!!! The past 2 days I released what I have done.
Please my brothers in Christ forgive me for ever leaving the most holy Orthodox Church.
The Church that has been most blessed by our Lord Jesus Christ. Only a few hours in Orthodoxy
and most of the problems in my life are starting to be solved. God might have been punishing me
or trying to show me that I was wrong. Blessed be God for ever showing to me that I had been
fooled by the evil one into leaving the Church.
My brothers please accept me back. Please forgive my sins for I have sinned more than any of you.
Please pray that now my life will be back on track and these so improtant things in my life that have
been going wrong will now gow right.
Lord have mercy!!!! :'(

Welcome back! You are experiencing a bout of joy but just be ware that the hard reality of Orthodoxy will set in eventually. Please be prepared by finding a confessor/spiritual father soon.

Armando,
I am so overjoyed to read these words from you...I have been thinking about you and praying for this ever since I read your first message on this site.
Glory to God! Trust and believe that He will have mercy on you. I believe He has forgiven me, and my sins are much greater than anything you have done.
