Serenity Prayer
10 July 2004, 10 am | Prayer
Take the time to really pray and reflect on this famous prayer. Each line is a goldmine worth…
God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference—
living one day at a time,
enjoying one moment at a time,
accepting hardship as the pathway to peace,
taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it,
trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His will—
that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him forever.
Amen.
— Reinhold Niebuhr

I’ve started reading the book. It is one of my most favourite poem/prayers.
Thank you again, so very much!
