Elder's Meditation -- One Day At A Time

It's not an accident that firewater is also called spirits.
Firewater affects our judgments.
The Great Spirit created a set of laws and principles by which we are to live our lives.
When we have problems we should pray and ask for the wisdom of these laws.
If instead we turn to liquor, our judgement will be affected.
It is the decision and choice made under the influence of booze that causes us to be fools.
We need to learn to lean on prayer and not on the spirits of alcohol.

Great Spirit, teach me to pray.
Let not one drop of liquor touch my lips today.
