Serenity For Today

[Anonymous]

God, grant me the serenity

to accept the people I cannot change,

which is pretty much everyone,

since I’m clearly not you, God.

At least not the last time I checked.

And while you’re at it, God,

please give me the courage

to change what I need to change about myself,

which is frankly a lot, since, once again,

I’m not you, which means I’m not perfect.

It’s better for me to focus on changing myself

than to worry about changing other people,

who, as you’ll no doubt remember me saying,

I can’t change anyway.

Finally, give me the wisdom to just shut up

whenever I think that I’m clearly smarter

than everyone else in the room,

that no one knows what they’re talking about except me,

or that I alone have all the answers.

Basically, God,

grant me the wisdom

to remember that I’m

not you.

Holy God and loving Father, I consciously place my fears, worries, anxieties, and burdens in your hands. I know that I have so little power to change the outcome of these events and I trust that you will work what is pleasing to you, and best for me, out of these situations. Forgive me for my anxious thoughts and for letting my own worry become an idol that robs you of my full trust. Strengthen and empower me to trust you more by the power and presence of your Spirit. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen

Be Encouraged! John 15:7 states: If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. Let’s Pray: God I ask in Jesus’ name that I will always abide (remain) in You, and allow Your Word to continually, constantly, forever abide (remain) in me. God help me. Give me a passion to read, listen, and meditate upon Your Word 365 days a year. Let Your Word dwell within me richly so that I may reap the benefits. God all that I have asked of You in this prayer, please do the same for all those I love, care about, and the writer of this prayer. Amen, So Be It! ♡♡♡ Please Read This Post: https://www.prayerrequest.com/blog/183/entry-18374-abide-in-god/

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
