V. The Many Forms of Penance in Christian Life
1435
Conversion
is accomplished in daily life by gestures of reconciliation, concern for the
poor, the exercise and defense of justice and right,33 by the admission
of faults to one’s brethren, fraternal correction, revision of life,
examination of conscience, spiritual direction, acceptance of suffering,
endurance of persecution for the sake of righteousness. Taking up one’s cross
each day and following Jesus is the surest way of penance.34
