Cleanse Your Spirit

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:8–9 (NIV)
God always gives you the opportunity to start over, simply by acknowledging your wrongdoings to Him and asking for forgiveness. Pray for the courage to approach God with an open heart, and be ready to accept His life-changing cleansing.
Dear God, I am sorry for my thoughts and actions; I am ready to receive the amazing blessing of starting anew.
