Serenity Prayer
The serenity prayer says, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change and the courage to change the things I can.” It states we will be given the wisdom to know the difference between the things that are under your control and the things that are beyond your control.
The prayer is asking for the grace to accept the things in our life over which you have no control. The Lilly’s of the field are provided for. To live a spiritual life without an agenda, accept the abundance offered and be at peace with all that surrounds us.
The second part of the prayer encourages us to have the courage to change what we can. We must be available and resilient to a new spirituality which allows change, one lived without fear. We often need courage to storm a new behavior that changes our consciousness and heals us spiritually.
The Serenity prayer helps us to remember our true calm self within and helps to reconnect our piece of mind amid life’s varied chaotic situations. The ocean of conciousness is vast and at time turbulent where we see no assurance of a coast line for security. Prayer is a way of navigating our will towards a higher power, one that is connected to all things. The Serenity prayer is a prayer which is used by all to remember the balance between control and being in control.
