A Tireless Seeker

Having wandered from any true sense of a spiritual home and any real sense of direction, I was lost, and hungered hopelessly for I knew not what.
My high power, however, is a tireless seeker.

Elder's Meditation -- Everything Or Nothing

With the Creator in our lives, we are everything.
Without the Creator, we are nothing.
When the Creator is in our life, suddenly the impossible becomes possible.
The extraordinary becomes ordinary.
Things we thought could never happen start to happen.
Talents we never know we had, start to blossom.
Resources appear.
Help arrives to give us guidance and direction.
We become happy.
We have peace of mind and confidence.

Oh Great Spirit, today I want You in my life.

The days that I know You are with me are

the days that are perfect.

Let me be joyful today.

Elder's Meditation -- The Four Winds

Each of the four directions has special powers.
These powers or Grandfathers are there to help us.
The powers are from the East, the South, the West, and the North.
To call upon the power we need to stand in the center and face each of the directions and honor all forms of life in each direction.
Facing the East we honor all the two legged, four legged, winged ones, plants' nation and the animals.
We repeat this prayer in each of the four directions.
This allows us to become centered.
When we are centered, then we are ready to call the helpers.
It is said, when the student is ready, the teacher appears.
If we are to be ready, we need to remember to always get quiet first.
We do this by honoring and praying to the four directions.

Grandfathers from the four directions,

come to me today with Your powers.

Give me Your gifts so I can serve the people.
