the so-called "Serenity Prayer"

Hey again Sisters, Brothers and Mothers  :D. So I've been wondering about the "Serenity Prayer". You know - "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can change, and the wisdom to know the diiference" (I hope I got that right). Do anyone know the scriptural basis of this Touching prayer of Christendom? Since Christendom is considered "Babylon - would this be in their freewill, Lucifer, hell, unsovereighty of God file? Just thoughts. And I love to see y'all pull out wonderful scriptures I've never seen before so I can't wait for the responses :-D :-D. Or maybe its not scriptural? (I know its not a verse). Can't wait for the responses. This site as well as this Forum has changed my life for the better. I truly appreciate the love on here and the blessing here. Much Love

Hey newgene87 ~ :)

Rev 22:11  He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Pretty cool huh?

You were asking about serenity right? ~ :)

 
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.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

I'm asking what is the scriptural basis for the serenity prayer?? What are the scriptures that back up the serenity prayer? And if that verse in revelations is one of them; then how? Please somebody
