I aspire, Universal Father, to new
expressions of spiritual service indigenous
to the unique personality you have given me.
I long to achieve the nobility of character
which feeds the wellsprings of creativity.
Deliver me from the foibles of spiritual
immaturity:
Pining for optimum conditions rather than
joyously accepting the rigorous living
required by evolutionary experience;
Pleading that you solve problems that
I should courageously grapple with myself;
and,
Equating my circumscribed world with
your larger vision.
Enlarge my appreciation of your endless
Paradise resources mediated to us through
the Supreme ministry of our Universe
Sovereign.
I am enriched and invigorated by your
presence and partnership in service and
soul actualization.
I rejoice in the potentials of your high
calling.
Keep me ever constant, steadfast, and
sensitively tuned to your truth, beauty,
and goodness!
Some day a reformation in the Christian church may strike deep enough to get back to the unadulterated religion of Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. (UB 196:2.1)
