AA Thought for the Day

We Can Pause
In all times of emotional disturbance or indecision, we can pause,
ask for quiet, and in the stillness simply say: "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.
Thy will, not mine, be done."
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, (Step Three) pp. 40 - 41
Thought to Ponder . . .
Reliance on God enables me to match calamity with serenity.
