Serenity Prayer

Yesterday I was visiting someone in the hospital and I walked by the chapel on the 2nd floor of the Methodist hospital. I went in and spent about an hour of prayer. It was wonderful. During that time God impressed the serenity prayer on my spirit. May it be a blessing to you:

SERENITY PRAYER
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace; Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world As it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that You will make all things right If I surrender to Your Will; So that I may be reasonably happy in this life And supremely happy with You forever in the next. Amen
