Native American Wisdom - Elder's Meditations

[Guest guest]

The smarter a man is the more he needs

God to protect him from thinking he

knows everything. "

 

--George Webb, PIMA

 

 

A spiritual person needs to be careful. The

more confident we are, the more likely our

egos will get us into trouble. It's relatively easy

to become self-righteous. We start to think we

are teachers and others are students. We start

to judge others. We start, very subtlely at first,

to play God. After a while we really get good at

it. This is very dangerous. We need to remind

ourselves, we are here to do God's will. We

need to pray every morning. Each day we need

to check in with God to see what He would

have us do. At night we need to spend time

with God and review our day. By doing these

things, we will stay on track.

 

 

My Creator,

guide my path

and show me

how to correct

my life.
