Elder’s Meditation of the Day - April 30

“Modern civilization has no understanding of sacred matters. Everything is backwards.”
–Thomas Yellowtail, CROW

Modern civilization says, don’t pray in school; don’t pray at work; only go to church on Sunday. If you don’t believe what I believe, you’ll go to hell. Deviancy is normal. Our role models cheat, drink and run around; these are the people in the news. The news sells bad news; no one wants to hear good news. Kids are killing kids. Victims have little protection. Violence is normal. Leaders cheat and lie. Everything is backwards. We need to pray for spiritual intervention. We need to have guidance from the Creator to help us rebuild our families, our communities and ourselves. Today, I will pray for spiritual intervention from the Great Spirit.

Grandfather, we pray for your help in a pitiful way.

Reading the meditation for today confirms for me even more that the ones who already know of this need to speak their truth .  Wherever we go, whatever we do we have to be aware of the influence we have of others and our environment and act accordingly.  We have a value system and we need to live it in all our affairs to the best of our abilities and stop compromising our deepest beliefs.
