A wise person once wrote, "God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things that I can; and the wisdom to know the difference." Those words of wisdom have their roots in the Bible, for example, in Philippians 4:11-13.

Serenity or inner peace is what God offers to those who choose to live His way. Not only are His laws and statutes given for our good, they are also verified in human lives and endeavors. Not many in this world have a lasting peace within their hearts and minds. But if we have our conduct worthy of the gospel of Christ and let our requests be made known to God with thanksgiving, “the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding” will be available to us (Philippians 1:27; 4:6-7).
