“Dear Jesus...
Thank you for making me and loving me, even when I’ve ignored you and gone my own way.
I realize I need you in my life and I’m sorry for my sins.
I ask you to forgive me.
Thank you for dying on the cross for me.
Please help me to understand it more.
As much as I know how, I want to follow you from now on.
Please come into my life and make me a new person inside.
I accept your gift of salvation.
Please help me to grow now as a Christian.”
