Prayer of Acceptance

Dear Lord who creates and guides all things.

Ruler of all events.

Broken hearted eternal lover.

Help me to accept the things I cannot change

Help me see how little I can change

Help me be content with what I can change

Give me a heart that wants to change for the better

Help me to let go of my frustration

Help me to trust your wisdom

Help me believe in the process of purification

Let me not become bitter but better

Help me to want what I have today even as I ask you to change tomorrow

Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy, Lord have mercy upon me
