The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity to accept the things l 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.
My Uncle's words
Although I am No longer here I am always near, but I will always listen to every tear this
year. The seasons weren't normal and my season wasn't perfect
but I did my best, which is why I am now able to rest. What God
Chose for me was for me, now I see that He is real and still has work for
me to do. In fact we made a deal that I would take the new job
watching over my love one's. This job was made just for me and I
needed to start Immediately. At one point in my life I was lost
but now to my family please rejoice and celebrate my new home
because now I'm found . I truly see how mush our heavenly father loves
me. To each and everyone of you "I love you all my life" and will always
be by your side.
