Full text of the Pope's prayer intention for March: 
 THE SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION 
 When I go to confession, it is in order to be healed, to heal my soul. To leave with greater spiritual health. To pass from misery to mercy. The center of confession is not the sins we declare, but the divine love we receive, of which we are always in need. The center of confession is Jesus who waits for us, who listens to us and forgives us. Remember this: In the heart of God, we come before our mistakes. And let us pray that we may experience the sacrament of reconciliation with renewed depth, to taste the forgiveness and infinite mercy of God. And let us pray that God may give his Church merciful priests and not torturers.

I wish all my friends that are,not the Catholic faith could understand this. we are not confessing to a man, but to Jesus. the man stands in for Jesus in Confession.
