I’m ready to pray now. How do I accept Jesus?

The final step is a prayer asking God to come in to your life and make you the person he wants you to be.  Prayer is just talking to God.  There is no right or  wrong way to do it.  God is not concerned about the words that you choose, he cares about the state of your heart.  He hears you, the words aren’t that important.  You can pray a prayer something like this:

Jesus, I want to know you personally.  I know that I am a sinner and that nothing I could do can make up for that.  Thank you for dying in my place and paying the price for my sin.  I know that my sin doesn’t separate me from God anymore.  Thank you for forgiving me.  I know that you love me and that I will spend eternity with you.   I want you to be my Savior.   Come into my life and take control, make me the person you want me to be.

God invites us into relationship with him. He’s not here to condemn, although our sin makes us guilty.  God is inviting us back, ready to welcome us home.  If you prayed this prayer we’d love to hear from you.  You can send us an email and one of our email mentors will respond.  There is no cost, no obligation.  You can continue the conversation if you want to or simply delete the email if you don’t.

Another place to talk about questions of faith is in the chatroom.   If you’re looking for a place to start searching, attend one of the moderated sessions you can see a full calendar of upcoming chats by scrolling down on the chat page.  Moderated sessions are hosted to keep the chats on topic and make sure all participants are respectful of each other’s opinions and questions.
