THE CREED OF THE LIGHT-BEARERS

The universe is a Web of Light
of which I am just one thread.
Alone, my light is small but it is essential.
When joined with my fellow Light-bearers,
together we become a mighty force for good.
Yet, even when I stand alone, my small Light
Counts towards the ultimate victory over the Dark.
At my birth I was destined to reach this point
where I could recognise the Light within.
During my life I will strive to keep that Light
Clean and bright and well tended.
At my death I know I will be gathered into
its brilliant glory, there to rest until I come again.
Let my Light be strong and like a beacon for others.
Let it shine out and guide those still in darkness
to safe harbour and a quiet mooring.
If I am tempted, let the Brotherhood of Light
Come to my aid. If I am tested, let their strength
be my shield. If I am wounded may their love heal me.
As they are to me, so shall I be to them.
A Brother, a Sister, a Companion ,a Friend.
All that has Life, carries a Light within,
All that carries an inner Light is part of the Web
of which I, am just one thread.
