This Serenity Prayer is considered a request to God asking for peace and calmness in anything that life has to offer. The prayer requests for courage and strength to change what man is capable of changing and to accept with humility the things he cannot change.
Therefore, when we find ourselves in difficult situations that we cannot fathom or move away from, at home, places of work, in Church, in the neighborhood or country, the Serenity Prayer is very powerful in pacifying the turbulence in the heart, soul and mind.
The 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 the pathway to peace.
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is
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 in the next.
Amen.
