Hi Steven, Sorry I missed this message or I would have answered earlier.
The first thing to do when wanting to serve God is to acknowledge that we all have sinned and make mistakes.
So you already admitted that.
The next thing to do is we turn our whole HEART to him!!
That means we accept Christ as our Lord and savior for the forgiveness of sins. And then we ask God to turn our hearts toward him so that we may serve him. ( WE CAN'T DO IT ON OUR OWN STRENGTH. )
We pray and confess that every day!
Then you will begin to see him move things out of the way that keeps you from putting him first.
However you have to do your part by believing and having faith in him.
That's your part!!
Faith comes by reading his word. Romans 10:17 "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
1 Petee 2:2-3 "as newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: if so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious."
We are saved and become sons of God the moment we sincerely cry out to Christ for forgiveness and accept Christ for Salvation!!
We began to grow after that by reading and trusting in his written word.
Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
God bless you.
We're here to help in any questions and concerns.
God knows whether we are sincere or not and he will act accordingly.
