Even at this point, if you have not already, you are invited to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. If you’re ready, your heavenly Father is listening. Use your own words, or you’re welcome to be guided by this prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come to You just as I am. I know that I have sinned and gone my own way, and that I cannot save myself. I believe that You love me, that Jesus is Your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins and rose again from the dead. I am sorry for my sin, and I turn from it now. Jesus, I receive You as my Lord and my Saviour. Thank You for forgiving me and making me Your child. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, and help me to follow You for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
If you just gave your life to Christ, congratulations and welcome to the Body of Christ! If you didn’t, you are equally welcome to continue to discover by reading on.
What now?
If you prayed that prayer and meant it, heaven rejoices over you — and a new life has begun. A few simple next steps will help it take root: tell another Christian what you have done; find a church family where you can belong and grow; begin to read the Bible, starting perhaps with the Gospel of John; and talk to God in prayer, simply and honestly, every day. You do not walk this road alone — you have been brought into a family, the Body of Christ, the whole of which this Series exists to serve.
And if you are still seeking, still weighing, still unsure — that is alright. The invitation remains open, and so does the door. Keep reading, keep asking, keep coming. The God who has brought you this far is patient, and He is not finished with your story.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
