I have this little prayer...take what you like, and leave the rest for a later date!
Dear God,
I come to You. I'm sorry about the mess I've made of my life. I want to turn away from all of the wrong things I've ever done and all the wrong things I've ever been. Please forgive me for it all.
I know You have (or I am willing to believe You may have) the power to change my life. Thank You for getting my attention long enough to interest me in trying it Your way.
Please God move into my heart and make Yourself real inside me and fill my awful emptiness. Fill me with Your love and make me know Your will for me. I'm not sure I want You to, but do it anyhow. Amen
