Have a good day today.

Most of us know the first part of the Serenity Prayer but until just now I had no idea there was more to this prayer.
Serenity Prayer
– Reinhold Niebuhr (1892-1971)
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.
Living one day at a time;
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
forever in the next.
Amen.

99% of what we worry or fret over, we can do nothing about. Human nature, I suppose.

Yes! Worry demands sooo much energy. I like the way Jesus put it: “Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?” 😊
