Salvation Prayer

Dear God, I know that I am a sinner and I ask for forgiveness. I believe

you died for my sins and rose from the grave. I turn from my sins and invite

you to take control of my life. I want to invite you to take control of my life.

I want to trust and follow you as my Savior and Lord.
