GOD with the saying of this word I am admitting the existence of a Higher Power, a being far greater than I.

GRANT with the repeating of this second word I am admitting that this Higher is an authority who can bestow and give.

ME I am asking something for myself. (The Bible states that if I ask it shall be given) It is not wrong to ask for betterment of myself, for with the improvement of my character, people around me will be made happier.

SERENITY I am asking for calmness, composure and peace in my life which will enable me to think straight and govern myself properly.

TO ACCEPT I am resigning myself to conditions as they are right now.

THE THINGS I
CANNOT CHANGE I am accepting my hardship as a pathway to peace. Until I have the courage to change any part of my life, I don't like. I must accept it and not accept it grudgingly.

COURAGE I am asking for a quality of spirit to face conditions with out flinching.

TO CHANGE I am asking for conditions to be different.

THE THINGS I CAN I am asking for help to make the right decision. Everything is not perfect in my life. I must continue to face reality and constantly work toward continued growth and progress.

WISDOM I am asking for the ability to form sound judgements in any and all matters.

TO KNOW I want to be able to understand clearly truths of facts.

THE DIFFERENCE I want to see things differently in my life so there can be some distinction. I need to sense a definite value in love over selfishness.
