Quote:Elder's Meditation of the Day June 10
"Each day, whatever I am doing, I am always praying and thinking of God."
--Thomas Yellowtail, CROW
Have you ever tries going through your day and carrying on a conversation with the Creator? Many of our Elders live in prayer. They talk to the Creator like the Creator is their best friend. It is easiest to do this if we pray in the morning and ask the Great Spirit to direct our thinking. When the Creator in involved in guiding our lives, we will have less stress, anxiety and tension. Maybe this is something we would like to try today. "Oh, Creator, look at the Sun, how beautiful you have made it. Oh, look at this child, isn't she just beautiful! Well, Creator, I'm not sure how I should do this task, what do you think? This person is starting to irritate me; I need your help to redirect my thinking. Thanks for returning me to a peaceful mind." Remember, the Creator also has a sense of humor.
Grandfather, Grandmother, let me walk in prayer.
Meditacija Starešin za 10.junij
"Vsak dan, karkoli počnem, vedno molim in mislim na Boga."
--Thomas Yellowtail, CROW
Si kdaj poskusil preživeti svoj dan v pogovoru s Stvarnikom? Mnogi izmed naših Starešin živijo v molitvi. Pogovarjajo se s Stvarnikom, kot da bi bil ta njihov najboljši prijatelj. To je najlažje storiti tako, da zjutraj molimo in prosimo Velikega Duha, naj usmerja naše misli. Ko bo Stvarnik vključen v vodenje naših življenj, bomo imeli manj stresa, zaskrbljenosti in napetosti. Morda je to nekaj, kar bi danes radi poskusili. "O Stvarnik, poglej Sonce, kako lépo si ga ustvaril. O, poglej tega otroka, mar ni prav lepa. No, Stvarnik, nisem prepričan, kako naj opravim to nalogo, kaj meniš? Ta oseba me začenja vznemirjat; potrebujem tvojo pomoč, da mi preusmeriš misli. Hvala, ker si mi povrnil miren um." Zapomni si, Stvarnik ima tudi smisel za humor.
Stari oče, Stara mati, naj hodim v molitvi.
