Dear Jesus,
I’m sorry I was bad today.
Amen.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9)

Dear Jesus,
I’m sorry I disobeyed Mom. Will you forgive me?
Amen.

As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. (Psalm 103:12)

Dear God,
I made a big mistake today. How big is your eraser? I hope you can forgive me.
In Jesus name,
Amen

Purify me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. (Psalm 51:7)

**********

Father God,
I’ve messed up. Again. How many times will it take me to get it right? Will you forgive me, again? You say to forgive someone seventy times seven. But I’m pretty sure I’ve asked for forgiveness for the same things a lot more than 490 times.
In Jesus name,
Amen.

For I will be merciful to their iniquities and I will remember their sins no more. (Hebrews 8:12)

**********

Dear God,
I’m not sure I can make it through this day. I’ve been struggling for so long, and I’m not sure how much more I can take. Will you help me?
In Jesus name,
Amen.

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23 ESV)

**********

Dear God,
I’ve heard about You, but I’m not sure I can believe it. Can you really forgive a mess like me? I mean, I’ve made some big mistakes, and now I’ve got a lifetime to think about it here in prison. Can you forgive a wretch like me?
Amen.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. (2 Corinthians 5:17)

**********

Dear God,
I’ve loved you nearly my entire life. You’d think I’d learn by now, and yet I still mess up almost every day. Thank you for your unfailing forgiveness.
In Jesus name,
Amen.

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace (Ephesians 1:7)
