Jesus,
I know that I need You. I admit that I have sinned and cannot save myself. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins and that You rose again to give me new life. I turn away from my old ways and ask You to forgive me. I invite You into my life as my Lord and Savior. Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit, lead me, and help me follow You each day. Thank You for loving me, forgiving me, and making me new.Amen.
