Serenity Response

Joe Fisher-Serenity Response. Please Lord help to accept that there are things I need to change, let my skin feel comfortable instead of awkward and strange. Help me leave the past behind while holding onto lessons learned, help not grab for what is out of my reach, some bridges are meant to be burned. Let me not trip over the silly things that complicate my mind, for a life of peace and happiness is all I hope to find. Help me to know when I should go and when I should stay, but most of all, please help me to get out of my own way! Amen. "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change."

An excellent response. I liked the line about helping me to get out of my own way !! My dad's favorite saying...."I am my own worst "...and I guess we are.
