With your help I can leave my past mistakes behind. I accept your free gifts of forgiveness for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive you as my Lord and Savior. I believe that I am truly a new person in you, help me Lord Jesus to be the kind of person you want me to be. Amen.

strengthened the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
Col 2:6-7
