A version of the Serenity prayer appearing on an Alcoholics Anonymous medallion (date unknown).. The Serenity Prayer is an invocation by the petitioner for wisdom to understand the difference between circumstances ("things") that can and cannot be changed, asking courage to take action in the case of the former, and serenity to accept in the case of the latter.
In her book entitled "The Serenity Prayer," the daughter of Reinhold Niebuhr, Elisabeth Sifton, gives the prayer verbiage that she says is the first version. "God grant me the grace to accept with serenity those things which I cannot change," prayer continues similarly, with the last line saying to help me to "know the one from the other."
