twenty-five words by Barb Rogers

I found this little gem of a book by accident.  It was on the bookcart ready to be shelved.  It looked interesting and is all about one of my favorite prayers--The Serenity Prayer.  Most people know about this prayer because it is used in the 12 step program.

The author takes apart the prayer line by line and offers insight into how to handle problems in your life.  As she says, we all have problems.  Problems and joy are relative.  Although the author has had her share of difficulties in spades, one can still glean some powerful messages from this simple prayer.

Written in simple text, this book invites you to explore your own life and how you can apply the basic thoughts of the serenity prayer to it.

Worth a read and some reflection.

Ladybookbug!
