Lord,
So I was watching this movie called "Sunday Morning Rapture" and it got me to thinking about my own soul and my own life. How do I examine myself to see if I am of the faith? How do I not worry and be so anxious all of the time? What does it also mean to work out our salvation with fear and with trembling? I know for now that at the end of the movie, those who were left behind were wailing and crying, realizing their fate. I realize that there will be many who will be like the people in the church in that movie. I don't want to be left behind. I do realize that I have not always done Your will. Lord, I am afraid that I won't be ready. I have finally realized that there is much work to be done. You have given all of us a job to do and much is required of us. Unfortunately, I am failing and I have failed to do so, Lord. Forgive me of this and all of my sins. The truth is, how do I do what is required of me? I know that I am supposed to do Your will, but I have no clue what Your will is. I don't want to be saved just because I want to go to Heaven, but to also love, cherish, and serve You. I remember once I had no real knowledge of You back in the day. I also recall believing in You and being saved from that moment on. I didn't always act like a saved person and I have done things that I know were and still are wrong. Lord, forgive me of those sins. I want to be a changed person. I want to be a new person in Christ. I want to be a saved, obedient believer in the Lord Jesus Christ who is enduring and remained faithful to You. I ask for these things, because I want my life to be a story of a person who lived according to Your will because of obedience.
Thank You for answering this, and every other prayer. In Jesus' name, Amen.
