A Sinner's Prayer
I know your love is so great for me. And I am ashamed I need your help so often. I hope I can grow spiritually and maybe get my life moving without causing problems after problems. I am so thankful of the Holy Spirit for its comfort, for its guiding knowledge, for it lightening my roads. Also for its giving wisdom of living and lifting me when I fall. I am greatful and blest God for your love and fullness. I am aware of the price you paid to open a choice of feelings good and bad to all that would choose. I rejoice that purity will come. The pure good and the pure evil. I tasted the sweetness of the seed of evil and also witnessed the bitterness that followed as the seed grew. I know now that to let one seed grow is to let the other die. Greatness in words can not be made speakable for my greatfulness to you, Jesus. For standing and accepting the pains and lending your name, Jesus to me. A name our Father trusts and knows so well to renounce the seed of evil. I am thankful for the true knowledge the spirit has given me. I am thankful for my church. I know it to be without any doubts the church that is built on a rock and started by the will of Jesus Christ. I look with great hope and desire as I start establishing my own duties within the church. I know evil will lay at my side. And I pray the Holy Spirit will be upon me without a word to guard me that you may gather fruits of my works. Lord Jesus, I want to have life full and satisfying. I know I do wrong and live in sin. And I am sorry for my sins. I ask you to forgive me, and to give me strength to turn away from sin. Right now I open my heart to you and put you first in my life as my Lord and Savior. I believe you separated from God in death on the cross, that you deadened my sins, and arose to overcome sin and death to give me justification for a new life of meaning. One led by the Holy Spirit to keep us cleansed for judgment of all these things. I praise you and rejoice in your name of Jesus for the glory of God.
