GOD
          Yes,  I hear you.

GRANT ME 
         You want help, my child? What is it?

 THE SERENITY  
        I see you want peace. Don’t you recall my words,
       Peace I give to you, my peace I leave you.
        I shall grant you peace.


TO ACCEPT  
      You want to accept?
      What is it you want to accept?
        To accept means not to question, pry or expect.
         It means to let be.


THE THINGS 

      I see, you want me to give you peace in being able to let things be,
    things from the past, things in the future.
     You would like to live just today.


I CANNOT CHANGE  
    You can change nothing, my child.
    What has happened has happened, there is nothing you can do about it.
     Let it be.
       What will happen will happen, leave that to Me.
         You can change no one else.
          Let go and let Me do My work.


COURAGE   
    Yes, you want power, power from Me, for you can do nothing
   without
My help or power to carry out My will, so ask for it and
   it shall be given to you.


TO CHANGE
     Now you have it.
    I will give you the power to change yourself, to look only at yourself,
    your faults and the power from Me to turn those faults into virtues.
      You can do nothing more.


THE THINGS
     Yes, the power to change things, not others.
     Things about yourself, no one else.
      If your motive is to change others, I cannot help you.


I CAN  
     By saying, I can you have already received my graces.
    I can means you can change yourself with the help of My power.


 AND THE WISDOM 
      Ah yes, this is one of my greatest gifts.
     In other words, you want Me to give you discernment.
      In order to get wisdom you must pray and meditate, be silent so you can hear Me.
        You will gain discernment by listening to others, reading and
        having an open mind.


TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE 
    This is the hard part.
      After you have prayed for guidance, sought council, and did some reading and
      truly listened for My answer, go forward bravely, I am with you always.
        If you are not sure of answer, then that is your answer.
          Let the matter rest with Me so I can do My work.
           I am the Master Painter of your life.
