If you've reached a place where you feel like you're ready to be found by Jesus ... that you've found Him ... that you're ready to cross the line of faith ... or however you might put it ...
Begin by saying to God, in your own words, that you need Him. It's appropriate to acknowledge that you've been living in a way that is far from Him. You are a sinner who is in need of a Savior. Then tell Him you want to be forgiven for your sins. You want a clean slate, a new beginning, your past erased. You know what Christ did on the cross applies to you, and you believe. Your prayer might sound something like this ...
Dear God, I know I am a sinner. I am separated from You. I also know that sin must be dealt with (addressed, punished). I now believe that Jesus Christ took that punishment when He died in my place on a cross and rose again. Right now, I trust Jesus alone as my Savior. Thank You for accepting me and for the forgiveness and eternal life I now have. I offer You my life and commitment to following You Jesus. Come and lead me Holy Spirit so that my life will glorify Jesus. I am dependent upon You and submit to Your plans and purposes for my life. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
