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.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
I wish everybody finds the serenity that good, strong faith brings.
Serenity is the balance between good and bad, life and death, horrors and pleasures. Life is, as it were, defined by death. If there wasn't death of things, then there wouldn't be any life to celebrate.
Give us grace and strength to forbear and to persevere. Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind, spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies.
The serenity prayer, 'God grant me the strength to accept...' That's a prayer that's actually in my car. I say it every day.
I want, of course, peace, grace, and beauty. How do you do that? You work for it.
What keeps me sane the most is, honestly, the Serenity Prayer.
Supreme serenity still remains the Ideal of great Art. The shapes and transitory forms of life are but stages toward this Ideal, which Christ's religion illuminates with His divine light.
Throughout our lives, God's grace bestows temporal blessings and spiritual gifts that magnify our abilities and enrich our lives. His grace refines us. His grace helps us become our best selves.
Every breath we take, every step we make, can be filled with peace, joy and serenity.
