God grant me.

I have an illustrated book-mark, purchased about eighteen months ago and pinned on the noticeboard in front of my desk, with the following text on it:-
'God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and Wisdom to know the difference.'
 After posting my Blog on August 24th. I received a comment, from 'grasshopper', which contained the following; I would like to share it with you :-

God, give me 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,
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardship as a pathway to peace,
Taking, as Jesus did,
This sinful world as it is,
Not as I would have it.
Trusting that You will make all things right,
If I surrender to your will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in life
And supremely happy with You forever in the next.
Amen.
