Marie Pablo : Why You Need to Know Your Go To Sins (Habitual Sin)
Do you know which sins are your “go-to sins”? Go-to sins are sins are habitual sins—sins that you are constantly struggling with, and have probably confessed more times than you can count. The reason why Mari wants you to know your go-to sins is because those are the places where Satan is most likely to attack. Today, Mari explains how to identify your go-to sins, and why it’s important to invite God into them so he can help with these attachments.
