"Shame. That gut-wrenching, wincing feeling we have in reaction to our own failures and mistakes. It's more than mere embarrassment from an awkward social situation. It may or may not reflect any real fault of ours. Shame is the pain that we feel when we are face to face with failures that we are responsible for - and especially when those failures and faults are visible to others."
In a recent commentary, Brother Christopher Daniel, O.P., reflected on the importance of looking our shame in the face and reflect upon our sins and failures and our need for God's mercy as we continue our Lenten journey.
