A Creed For Marriage
The Edgar Cayce archive at A.R.E. headquarters in Virginia Beach contains a wealth of published and unpublished correspondence and documents on the "Sleeping Prophet." I compare it to a Library of Congress for the metaphysical world. Among the documents that Nancy and I found in the archive is a document titled Creed For Marriage. As there is no author listed, we can't say whether or not this came through Cayce when he was in trance, or simply something that was dear to him. I find it quite inspiring and endeavor to read it over every few months to remind me what having a partner is all about. I'm sharing it here as others may feel the same.Creed For Marriage
I believe that the
ability to love is a gift
and a privilege, and
that it deserves cultivation
in every way.
I Believe that I love
you, and because I love
you, I am responsible
for you, the specific
human being who happens
to Love me, and
who best understands
and answers my needs.
I believe that with the
help of God, I may
understand and answer
yours, and may surround
your days with
serenity.
I Believe that He will
help me to act positively
in my relations with
you and all other humans,
so that my love will
heal and help, not hurt or
destroy; and that
because of Him, all obstacles
can be overcome, and
all rough paths made
smooth.
I Pray that He will
help me to remove all traces
of selfishness and
conceit, and those fears which
prevent right
motivation, right action, and harmony in my life. I pray that, as I become ready, He will
replace them with the Light of wisdom.
May our home always be
in each others’ hearts,
and not just a place of
sticks and stones. May its
hearth, in peace and
freedom, always support a
welcome fire; where may
be fostered the repeated
red-dedication of our
belief in the necessity to
preserve and extend the
good in all human lives
which become tangent to
our own.
