For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
That whoever believes in him shall not perish but have
eternal life. John 3:16

This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ
to all who believe.  Romans  3:22

Yet to all who receive him, to those who believe in his name,
he gave the right to become children of God. 
John   1:12

love, Peace and Joy can be yours
All you have to do is say a simple prayer

The New testament makes it clear that we have to do something to accept the gift that God offers.  Believing involves an act of faith, based on all that we know about Jesus.  It is not blind faith.   You can do this in many ways but this is one way in which you can take this step right now.

                a) 'Sorry'
                You have to ask God to forgive you for all the things
                you have done wrong and turn from everything which
                you know is wrong in your life.  This is what the Bible
                means by 'repentance'.

                b) 'Thank you'
                We believe that Jesus died for us on the cross.  You
                need to thank him for dying for you and for the offer
                of his free gift of forgiveness, freedom and his Spirit.

                c) 'Please'
                God never forces his way into our lives.  You need to
                accept his gift and invite him to come and live within
                you by his Spirit.

                If you would like to have a relationship with God, and
                you are ready to say these three things, then here is a
                simple prayer which you can pray and which will be
                the start of that relationship.

Lord Jesus Christ

I am sorry for the things I have done wrong
in my life (take a few moments to ask his
forgiveness for anything particular that is on your
conscience.) Please forgive me.  I now turn from
everything that I know is wrong.

Thank you that you died on the cross fro me so
that I could be forgiven and set free.

Thank you that you offer me forgiveness and the
gift of your spirit.  I now receive that gift.

Please come into my life by your Holy Spirit to
be with me for ever.

Thank you, Lord Jesus.  Amen.
