Wisdom to know the difference.

Last Saturday I went to mass with my family, and as bad as it sounds, I have to admit that I usually zone out during the homily. This weekend was different though, I actually listened and I felt like it was exactly what I needed to hear. The homily centered on the idea that we shouldn't worry so much on what the future will hold, but we should focus on today and what we can accomplish at this very moment. The homily focused on change and how we have to have faith that no matter what happens we are equipped with the strength and courage to overcome it.


I know not everyone believes in the same things, but no matter what you believe and no matter what your values, faith that everything will be alright and that we are not alone are needed to get by.

Serenity Prayer:

Please 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.
