Catholic AnswerIt is very important to keep in mind that confirmation, like baptism, is NOT a "graduation" type ceremony - it is an occasion when God gives you grace, which ONLY becomes active when you are in a state of grace and actively living a good Christian life. In other words, it is analogous to birth - after birth you have to live your entire life, and it is on how you live your life that you will be judged at the end of your life. In the same manner, the graces of the Holy Spirit are put into you to strengthen and allow you to live out the graces originally given in Baptism, but it is NOT automatic, you actually have to live them. You will not continue anything, you will START to live these graces, and, by the grace of God, grow in them until the end of your life and judgment. Think of it like getting a swimming suit, the suit doesn't teach you how to swim, it only gives you the correct thing to wear while you are swimming, you actually have to get in the water and learn to swim, and learn to swim well. The fact that you have been confirmed is a great start to working out your salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12) but it is only a start!What is the meaning for confirmation?
