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.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 – love is patient

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”
