Serenity, Courage and Wisdom—One Day at a Time

Many of us know the familiar words: “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.”
In recovery—and in life—these words can become a daily practice. Acceptance is not giving up. Courage does not mean we are never afraid. Wisdom often grows through experience, connection, and the willingness to ask for help.
The long version of the Serenity Prayer carries the message even further, encouraging us to meet life one day and one moment at a time, to allow hardship to become part of our journey toward peace, and to trust even when we cannot control the outcome.
We cannot rewrite yesterday or solve all of tomorrow today. We can, however, choose our response, reach out for support, and take the next right step.
Today, consider asking yourself: What do I need to accept? What can I change? Where might I need support in knowing the difference?

We have Per Recovery Centers, Sober Living, and peers that work in many jails to help participants build their recovery prior to being released.
