The Serinity Prayer

(Short Version)

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.

Amen.

The Serinity Prayer

(Long Version)

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 hardships 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 in the next.

Amen.
