The short version of the Serenity Prayer is a prayer that has been a great help to members of my family. We have often had to remind each other to use it, even though it works so well, because it is often answered so quietly.
Many prayers for our Recovering Freeper.
The Serenity Prayer does work in mysterious ways.
Why should we waste an ounce of effort trying to change something beyond our control. All we can do is change our reaction to the thing. Thanks for the reminder to use this valuable prayer.
After my husband passed away (many years ago) I found myself saying the Serenity Prayer sometimes every five minutes. It carried me through many difficult moments.
