Serenity Prayer

I actually didn't know there was more to this prayer than the first sentence, but I found it online today - and it is totally and completely fitting to the way I feel right now. I am trying to be the best mother I can, and yet, sometimes I find myself getting discouraged. This prayer makes me smile :)


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. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardship 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.
