Freedom from Bondage
Let’s take this moment to invoke the Presence of Spirit,
It’s goodness, its light, its consciousness and its atmosphere of peace.
There is only one mind, one source, and one life,
And that is life as a spiritual being, as a loving being.
This universe is the glory of God. It is a moving, flexible, fluidic creation.
It is alive with life, abundance and all the richness of God.
I express the deep knowledge that God is within me, and
We are all inseparably one with the infinite Presence and Power.
I affirm that we all come from this one Source.
I now speak my word for myself and for all,
As I align myself with the Spiritual Law of Freedom.
I affirm freedom, instead of bondage; faith, instead of fear; happiness, instead of sorrow; and abundance, instead of lack.
I realize that I have created my own bondage, and that I can just as easily, create my own freedom.
I choose to realize good in my life, because good is permanent, and it is my reality.
My life takes a new form and becomes better every day as my understanding evolves.
I am a manifestation of spiritual ideas that create more harmonious conditions in my life.
The more of these ideas that I understand and comprehend, the more I realize harmony in my life.
I have implicit trust and confidence in the power of my word.
I turn to meditation to free myself from fear.
I dwell on the idea of love and protection until finally the images of fear dissipate.
I have complete confidence in the truth of my statements, when I speak spiritual mind healing treatments.
I claim my birthright to good and to freedom in my life.
I nurture trust, faith and confidence, whenever any doubt arises.
I turn to Spirit for Divine assurance.
I realize that the movement of my thought acts as law.
I realize that my thoughts and words have power.
I claim liberty through my harmony and unity with good.
I know that freedom does not give me the power to abuse others.
If I abuse others, I can expect to be abused.
I recognize that this law is foolproof.
And, I affirm that the universe is for me and is never against me.
If my use of the law has no element of hurt, I am permitted to use it to the limit.
I make a conscious choice to make sure that all my choices come from a place of love.
So it is with a grateful heart, that I express overwhelming thankfulness for my own freedom, for love, for kindness and for compassion in my life.
And so it is.
