Default long time away

I used to have a strong faith, but over the years i have slipped away. I have made many poor decisions and need help to get my life back on track. I have denied GOD and lived a very sinful life. I do not know how to start to ask for forgiveness. I am troubled. I desperately want to find peace within myself. I want to rid myself of the life I have been living. I struggle with pride and doubt. I have become so detached from my faith, I know longer know where to ask for help. Thank you.

You have taken the greatest step already! It's written all over the Bible:

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; those who seek find; and to those who knock, the door will be opened." Matthew 7:7-8

"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; those who seek find; and to those who knock, the door will be opened." Luke 11:9-10

The righteous prayer is a great way to confess your sins to the Lord.

Dear Heavenly and Caring Father,
We first would like to thank you for the gift of prayer, and the promise that you hear us. We come to you in prayer bringing our shame, worries, and anxieties to you Lord. We lay them at your feet, one-by-one, in exchange for the joy of Your glorious Name. Lord, please fill our hearts and minds with the holy spirit so that we can follow Your path - the righteous path. You are the caring, merciful, just God, and for that we thank you so much! Thank you for all the blessings we have received. May you light our paths, forgive our sins as we confess those that we know - but please forgive us for the sins we are not aware of, and fill our hearts with fresh mercy so we can follow Your word. In Your Holy Name of Jesus Christ, We pray. Amen.

Default thinking

Dear lord,
I feel your presence, but i have lost all faith in myself. Please give me the strength to fullfill the plans you have laid out for me. I want to become a doctor and do work to help the needs of others. That is my dream. I am scared that this incsecurity has changed my chances. I never doubted, but i was pressured into feeling a certain way. I will live alone if it means my future will be bright. Please lead me.\
