May Prayer

MAANYA BAWA

Heavenly Father,

Grant me the grace to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Help me to embrace the virtue of acceptance, to recognize that every challenge and every setback presents an opportunity for growth and learning. Help me to approach every situation with an open heart and an open mind, to be patient and compassionate with myself and others. As I navigate through my school years, help me to accept the challenges that come my way - difficult assignments, tough exams, social pressures, and more. Help me to trust in your love and guidance, knowing that you are always with me, supporting me through every challenge. May my acceptance be a reflection of my faith in you, and may it inspire others to trust in your providence as well, Amen.
