There are many prayers, this one is a necessity in our current world
Serenity Prayer GOD(Creator or Higher Power), grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference.
(Although known most widely in its abbreviated form above, the entire prayer reads as follows...)
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.
Preamble to Decrees May all that is involved in Human speech be cleansed, Our tongues and throats be washed with Light and blessed, Our minds and hearts clear channels for the God's expression; And that which we decree SHALL MANIFEST! May consciousness hold strong in full awareness, All inner turbulence be laid to rest, All personal desire be bowed in joyful service; And that which we decree SHALL MANIFEST!
May each accept his source within the heart of God, And know that all who live are God expressed, And know the power of the real shall have dominion; And that which we decree SHALL MANIFEST! In Love, in Power, and in Wisdom balanced, May all the work be done with Truth its test, Outpicturing the Master's plan through this clear channel; And that which we decree SHALL MANIFEST!

Affirmation of the Disciple I am a Point of Light, within a Greater Light. I am a Strand of Loving Energy, within the Stream of Love Divine. I am a Point of Sacrificial Fire Focused within the fiery Will of God And thus I stand!
I am a Way by which men may achieve. I am a Source of Strength, enabling them to stand. I am a Beam of Light, Shining upon their Way. And thus I stand! And standing thus, revolve; And tread this way, the ways of men, And know the ways of God. And thus I stand!
The Souls of Men The Souls of men are one And I am one with them. I seek to Love, not Hate; I seek to Serve, and not exact due service; I seek to Heal, not Hurt.
Let pain bring due reward of Light and Love. Let the Soul control the outer form And life and all events, And bring to light the Love That underlies the happenings of the time.
Let vision come and insight. Let the future stand revealed. Let inner union demonstrate And outer cleavages be gone. Let Love prevail. Let all Souls Love.
Affirmation of Will I am the Will that knows the way. I am the Love that holds the line. I am the Christ that lives in my heart. I am the Whole of all my parts. I am the Teacher and the Pupil. I am the Seeker and the Sought. I am the One and also the All. I am You and Me and We. We are All and We are One. We are Separate and We are Not. I live in You and You in Me. Together we strive and reach and grow. Until there is only God.
I Am the Light of God I Am the Light of God that never fails. I Am the rebirth of all into God. I am the transmutation of all that has been misqualified in my world. I am perfect Love And in my Love, all that I am is Bathed, Healed, Reborn
In the Heart of God, I am the Heart of God. I am the Love and Forgiveness of all that I have created. I am Divine Gentleness And in this Gentleness, all resistances will melt away.
I am a Child of the Light. I am the perfect Child of God. To that which doubts and resists I give unyielding Love and unfaltering Forgiveness.

I am God incarnate. I speak with the Voice of God incarnate. I move with the Will of God incarnate. I Love all that is. I am Pure Love.
I am the Victory of the Light. I am the God Within - And all that is not a true expression of the God I am - I shall forgive. I am God incarnate - And all that I have created, I can change.
I am the Victory of Love in my world. I am the Victory of Wisdom in my world. I am the Victory of Power in my world. I am the Victory of God's Love, Wisdom, and Power Over all that is less than God. I am the Balance of all that I am.
I Am a Channel I am a Channel of Love, Will, and Service. I am a Gatekeeper of Universal Energy. I stand with the Masters of Light - Against the forces of darkness. Amen I Am Life I am without beginning, without end. I, who watch personal selves come and go, Am more than my personal self. I reach beyond time and space. I am one part of one Whole - that Whole is God. I, the offspring of that Whole, have great potential Through: Trial and Error, Interaction with others, Cause and Effect, And the Law of Rebirth. I learn to Create, Love, and Blend with the Whole. I affirm my oneness with all that exists: Life eternal, unending and triumphant. I am that Life, now and forever. \ Amen
Clearing & Cleansing I call for a clear Mind, Free from illusions of duality, Receptive to Divine ideals, Intuitively hearing the Soul. I call for a clear Heart, Free from the bonds of separation, Shining with the Light of the Christ, Ready to show God's Love.
I call for a clear Body, Free from the desires of earth, Cleansed in the fire of truth, Ready to do God's Will.
I call for the Angel of the Presence To command my earthly vessel, To steer me on the lighted way, To know God's will and but obey.
Divine Opulence I call for the Opulence of the Father's Light To permeate my Soul, And sound the Tone of the God Within To ring the opposite pole I Am the Light of the God Within And the bubbling joy in me. I know the peace that comes from Him And feel His harmony. I have the wisdom to be real And the freedom to be free With the Father’s covenant I now seal The power of victory. I am grateful, Father, for opening the gates So my love can flow again. And for guiding me through the narrow straits, To the heart of the God Within. I Wait Upon the God Within I wait upon the God within. I wait for the joy that I Am To permeate all things -
My Consciousness, My Being, My World. I have all of time. A whole eternity exists in the Now ,And there just isn't any rush.

Songs of the soul rejoicing at having achieved the high state of perfection, the Union with God, by way of spiritual negation. Once in the dark of night, Inflamed with love and yearning, I arose (O coming of delight!) And went, as no one knows, When all my house lay long in deep repose
All in the dark went right, Down secret steps, disguised in other clothes, (O coming of delight!) In dark when no one knows, When all my house lay long in deep repose.
And in the luck of night In secret places where no other spied I went without my sight Without a light to guide Except the heart that lit me from inside.
It guided me and shone Surer than noonday sunlight over me, And led me to the one Whom only I could see Deep in a place where only we could be.
O guiding dark of night! O dark of night more darling than the dawn! O night that can unite A lover and loved one, Lover and loved one moved in unison.
And on my flowering breast Which I had kept for him and him alone He slept as I caressed And loved him for my own, Breathing an air from redolent cedars blown. And from the castle wall The wind came down to winnow through his hair Bidding his fingers fall, Searing my throat with air And all my senses were suspended there.
I stayed there to forget. There on my lover, face to face, I lay. All ended, and I let
My cares all fall away Forgotten in the lilies on that day.
The Original:
La Noche Oscura Del Alma San Juan De La Cruz
Cançiones del alma que se goça d’auer llegado al alto estado de la perfecçion, que es la union con Dios, por el camino de la negaçion espiritual En una noche obscura, con ansias en amores imflamada, ¡oh dichosa uentura! sali sin ser notada, estando ya mi casa sosegada.
A escuras y segura, por la secreta escala disfraçada, ¡oh dichosa uentura! a escuras y ençelada, estando ya mi casa sosegada.
En la noche dichosa, en secreto, que nadie me ueya, ni yo miraua cosa, sin otra luz ni guia sino la que en el coraçon ardia.
Aquesta me guiaua mas cierto que la luz del mediodia,
adonde me esperaua quien yo bien me sabia, en parte donde nadie parecia.
¡Oh noche que me guiaste! ¡oh noche amable mas que el aluorada!, ¡oh noche que juntaste amado con amada, amada en el amado transformada!
Y en mi pecho florido, que entero para el solo se guardaua, alli quedo dormido, y yo le regalaua, y el ventalle de cedros ayre daua.
El ayre de la almena, cuando ya sus cabellos esparzia, con su mano serena en mi cuello heria, y todos mis sentidos suspendia.
Quedeme y oluideme, el rostro recline sobre el amado, ceso todo, y dexeme, dexando mi cuidado entre las açucenas olvidado.
