Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time

I had lunch with a friend, who told me that she had stopped smoking. I was delighted at her decision because she had been a smoker for many years. I was really glad to catch up with her because it had been a few months since we last met. We were able to share some thoughts we had about certain issues. I told her that I will pray for her. :-)

As I was walking back to my office, the Serenity Prayer came to mind.

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.
