GOD GRANT ME SERENITY

BY Reinhold Neibbubr

“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,
