| Serenity by Hyunah Kim |
God, grant me the serenity
to
accept the things I cannot change,
to
change the things I can
and
the wisdom to know the difference...
that peace within my soul, a gift of grace,
that comes from you alone,
a gift I cannot give myself...
Then I pray
to accept
the things I cannot change
and over which
I'm powerless:
things
beyond my reach and ken
which only
you
(and others,
if they choose)
might change
and turn around...
I also pray for
strength
to
change the things I can,
to see what's
most in need of change
is me:
my mind and
heart,
my words and
deeds,
my choices
and decisions
and the paths I choose to take...
And so I pray for wisdom, Lord,
to help
discern what only you can do
from things
that only I with you
am charged
and graced to do
that I might
rest serenely
in the peace
that comes
from doing
what you ask...
Amen.
