My Mood: Points: 865.31 Bank: 1,286.82 Total Points: 2,152.12 | I've always loved that prayer. There's actually another part to it. Here is the entire 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 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.
--Reinhold Niebuhr
God Bless,
Carrie

While I was growing up (I grew up with my nana) we had that prayer on a piece of stained glass hanging in our kitchen. I have seen it every day of my life and it gives me hope. I was so shocked to find a thread about it on here. |
