Father in Heaven, thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for the forgiveness of my sins. Lord Jesus, please forgive me for all my sins. Come into my heart and be my Lord and Savior. Teach me the Word of God and help me live for You. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
