Needing some peace of mind

I am in serious need of some peace this week.  Too many storms surround me and I need some sort of reprieve before I reach my breaking point.  When I close my eyes, I take a deep breath, and I picture myself here:
 
 


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.

--Reinhold Niebuhr
