Are you aware about the serenity prayer? Do you have any idea how powerful that prayer is? This prayer is ideal for those who find themselves seeking peace, strength and wisdom in life. I have to share to you an article dealing with serenity prayer. It is about the people who are into drugs and that they find it hard to change their lives. John-Ross Boyce, the writer of this article, mentioned, “There’s an old prayer in rehabilitation centers to help bolster the downtrodden spirits of drug addicts and alcoholics. It goes, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.” Addicts have these things called “triggers” situations or problems that drive them to consume unhealthy amounts of alcohol/crack/horse tranquilizers. The whole point of the Serenity Prayer is that the problems which plague you may have fix or not, but that does not matter. What really matters is your attitude when confronted with your daily demons.”

If people needs strength to overpower the difficulties in life, they need to pray the Serenity Prayer. However, we must put into action all the things that any of us pray. This prayer allows us to do things to overcome our problems and not just watch for those prayer to come into reality. We control our body; thus, whenever we pray, we must have the will and the courage to make everything happen. Don’t wait for God to inform you what to do, take an action and simply have faith and trust in Him that He is going to be there to help you in times you need Him most.

There would come a period when people blame God when their prayers aren’t answered. But do you ask yourself if you did your very best for your prayers to come into reality? In this post written by John Boyce, he would like impart to everybody that we have problems you can fix alone; you just really have to take an action for this. If a person is fat, and that he or she wants to drop some weight, he or she should do the best that he or she can to drop some weight; exercising is the solution for that. If you’re a chain smoker and you just really want to stop smoking, to stop certainly is the solution for that. If a person thinks their relationship isn’t working anymore, he or she should make a way to save it; or stop the relationship if you are not happy anymore. If you think the exam is very difficult to pass, then you must study harder to have good grades.

There’s also problems that you just cannot easily overcome. This is what Serenity Prayer is all about. By this prayer, you are actually asking God to grant you the serenity to accept those things that you simply cannot change, have courage to change the things that you must change and have wisdom to find out the differences.
