a simple prayer of faith - Lord Jesus...I admit to you that I have sinned and that it was wrong. I understand that there is nothing that I can do to escape the consequence of what I have done... which is eternal separation from you.
But I also understand that you died in my place so that I would not have to suffer the consequence that I deserve. I believe that you rose from the dead and that you now offer me eternal life through your death and resurrection.
Please forgive me. Whatever it means to believe in you, that is what I want to do right now. I need you.
From this time forward, I want to change the direction of my life and follow you. Give me a hunger for your Word and a desire to spend time with you every day. I pray that I would love you with all my heart and all my soul and all my strength. Help me to obey you without hesitation and be faithful to you until the day that I die. Help me to love others and to demonstrate my love through concrete actions. Protect me from all evil. Give me wisdom to make right decisions that honour you.
Thank you very much for all that you have done for me.
