A Prayer for Salvation

I wrote this prayer on 5-27-03 when I decided to give my life to God. I pray it helps you with your walk and in times when you need a “pick me up”. Dear Lord my God, I know that I have been a sinner and I need Your forgiveness. I am willing to turn away from my sins. I believe Jesus is the Son of God, who died on the cross for my sins and was resurrected and sits at the right hand of God. I now invite Jesus Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Savior. Lord, keep satan far away from me at all times, keep him from interfering with my thoughts, my actions and with serving You everyday of my life. Keep me out of darkness by guiding me with Your light. Take away all of my burdens, I have been carrying them with me too long. So, I give them up to You. Teach me how to forgive myself and others as You forgive me and those who call on You. Teach me patience in all things and let Your perfect love dwell within me at all times. Use me to glorify You in everything I do, everyday. Let everyone that sees me, see Your light shining within me and want to know You because, they have seen Your greatness through me. I promise to be a good, true and faithful serant to my Lord and to follow and obey Jesus Christ as the Lord of my life. Amen! I pray this prayer is a blessing to you, please feel free to use this prayer or say one from your own heart but, I pray that you ask Jesus to come into your life starting now! God bless you today and always. Your sister in Christ, Tina Shinn* Today, I’m also including some loving words from a Fellow Lover Of Christ’s Kingdom, my mom Liz.~You may have gotten off to a rough start in life. Perhaps you experienced horrible poverty, despair, abuse or other negative things during your childhood. You may be tempted to let those negative experiences set the course for the rest of your life. Remember, just because you started life that way does not mean you have to finish it that way. You need to get a fresh vision of what God can do in your life and hold onto it. {”Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his or her life”~Matthew 6:27}{”Do not be overcome by evil but, overcome evil with good”~Romans 12:21}{”Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.”~Ephesians 4:31-32} *Lord, please let me know the ways I am headed in the wrong direction so that I can turn around at once.**God, you are the source of all my strengh, in You only do I trust.**I do not want suffering Lord but, I want to accept Your will.**Lord God, I thank You for desiring that I become good and for giving me the grace to becoming better.* Remember, God does not want us to dwell in the past, but to live for today and tomorrow. Follow Christ and He will lead you to joy, peace and compassion with a longing to walk in His path. If you fall down, He will lift you up. Your sister in Christ, Liz Ginn
