Learn 5 minute prayer that will change your life.

The Serenity prayer is a short simple and very powerful prayer. The prayer can be said in less than a minute and the impact of this simple prayer is amazing. Sometimes when I am stopped in my tracks from something unexpected and need to get re-focused, I remind myself that all of my strength to continue is right in that prayer. So I stop, recite the prayer and within seconds I am re-energized refocused and full of faith and not fear.

The simplicity and basis of the prayer are about letting go. Learning to let go of what does not belong to us. To many times we try to hold on to things that are not meant for us at that time. The more they are wrong for us, the tighter we squeeze. The serenity prayer reminds us that we are not in control of all things and that we all need to learn to accept this fact.

The prayer also talks about courage and trust and the willingness to change. You see, change can be very difficult. Not only is it hard to make change but sometimes its even harder to accept change. Once we believe in this part of the prayer and humbly ask God to help us, we will begin to feel a sense of peace.

Everyday I pray to God for wisdom. I pray that he will give me words to write about or talk about that will have an impact on YOU the reader. I pray that the wisdom that he gives me will allow me to make a difference for someone today. Wisdom is in all of us, but to ask for it to be revealed is different. Many times I know what I want to express, but I need to ask for the wisdom in order to release my thoughts properly and constructively.

So, if you have never read or recited this beautiful empowering short prayer, here it is below. I encourage you to write it down, place it where you can read it daily or better still, begin to memorize it.

 

Lord 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.

 

 

 

 Take the challenge today and recite the prayer. Let it sink into your soul and meditate on it. Watch the magic happen in this moment. This prayer will release you and give you all of the freedom to go about your day in peace. It will break the chains that are holding you back from a worry free day. It will allow you to let your higher power shoulder the load. This prayer will grant you Serenity.
