Dear Jesus, I know that I have messed up my life so much…so many bad decisions. I thought I was just too bad for God to love me but I am putting my trust in you. You’ve promised that I can call on your name and that you will forgive me of my sins; that you’ve taken my sin on the cross to give me everlasting life with you. I’m blown away, Jesus, of your great love for me that you would die for my sins…a death that I deserved and not you. Jesus, forgive me and give me the new life that you promised. In Jesus’ precious and holy name. Amen .
