#God grant me the serenity full

God help me to sow seeds of peace and justice in my children’s hearts today. God help me to weave a tapestry of love and not hate in my children, a spirit of tolerance and caring, and a dedication to freedom for all and not just some. Bless her/him with your love that she/he may not be afraid and restore her/him to health.

#God grant me the serenity full

Make her/him strong, full of life and laughter once more. She/he is so fragile and young, so small and vulnerable. Hear my prayer, O God, source of all life.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, 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 taking this world as it is and 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 this life and supremely happy with You forever in the next. Help us, O God, to believe that you receive us as we are, and help us to entrust ourselves, with all our many struggles and hopes, to your faithful and abiding care.

When we rejoice, you celebrate with us when we are anxious and afraid, you offer us a relationship where we can find courage to face the unknown when we weep with sadness, you are our comforter. Tender and compassionate God, you are our steadfast companion in the joyous times of our lives.
