The
Serenity
Prayer


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 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
forever in the next.

By Reinhold Neibuhr
