The Serenity Prayer

· 1 Comment

My mom taught me the Serenity Prayer when I received my first communion.

I like this prayer so much… It gives me courage and calmness. So I want to share it with you all.

Serenity Prayer

The Serenity Prayer
by Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)

 

God, give us grace to accept with serenity
the things that cannot be changed,
Courage to change the things
which should be changed,
and the Wisdom to distinguish
the one from the other.

 

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.

(If you like it, here’s a printed version of The Serenity Prayer.)

    Thanks for posting this, I didn’t realise that there was a second part to it!

    Peace
