We are all lost until we personally meet The Savior and ask Him to come into our hearts and redeem us.

We are born into sin but we all have a free will to reject it or not. It must be our own decision.

Father, If not by my life than by my death may Your Holy Name be glorified forever. I offer myself to You and ask that my life be a sweet incense to Your nostrils for the Blood of Your Precious Son, Jesus Christ was poured out for the remission of all my sins and all that I am or ever hope to be is Yours. I have nothing to offer anyone else for all that I have is Yours. I owed a debt I could never hope to pay and You paid it for me. I was Yours to begin with for only You can create life and You created me; but I was lost to You in sin and just as the good shepherd searches for his lost sheep until he finds it, You searched for me. You found me, lifted me up from the mire of shame and degradation and gave me back my life and my dignity. Now I am Yours twice over. First because You made me and, Second because You bought me back. You paid the cost of my freedom with Your Own Blood. Thank You Father. I am Yours and You are my God Forever. Amen
