A Serenity Prayer ~

O Divine One,                              
to You I raise my whole being, ~
a vessel emptied of self. 

 

Accept O gracious God, this my emptiness,
and so fill me with Yourself  
                                                                                                                         
~Your light,   
Your love,        
Your life ~      

that these Your  
precious gifts may radiate through
me and overflow the chalice of my    
heart into the hearts of all those 
with whom I come in contact  
this day ~ revealing unto  
them the beauty of Your joy
and wholeness and the serenity
of Your peace, which nothing can destroy.
