                                                       AN AFFIRMATION OF FAITH

I am becoming humanly what I am spiritually

My body is a temple for my soul

It is my church, perfect in its wholeness

I am the priest and my heart is the alter

My life is one of love and service toward life

I am becoming humanly what I am spiritually

I recognize that it is I who transforms the physical nature into spiritual strength through thought and desire

I recognize that there exists universal harmony and I am an integral part of the Whole

I accept loving grace, wisdom and compassion as my reality and thus my physical body becomes a sacred temple for the spirit of love to dwell

In humility and gratitude I behold my mind and body as perfect form energized by the light of truth

I am becoming humanly what I am spiritually

In trust and faith I live knowing the love of our Creator

As I walk in the newness of life, I offer my soul, mind and body to a grander frequency of spirit awareness

As I grow stronger each day basking in Purity and Presence, I offer my heartfelt gratitude for the unceasing blessings

I truly know that God is All-Embracing Love and thus we are destined to be humanly what we are spiritually
