Elder's Meditation May 10

"When you go inside that power, there's no fear. It's so beautiful!! There's no fear there. There's no pain."
---- Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA


Imagine you are standing on the edge of a stage. In the center of the stage is a spotlight shining from above. If you stand anyplace outside the spotlight, in the darkness, you will experience fear. But as soon as you step into the light in the center of the stage, all fear and pain go away. When we stand in the power, fear cannot exist. How do we find this place of power? We pray our way into it. We ask the Creator to take our hand and help us. When we get to that place, we will feel the fear go away.

Great Spirit, hold my hand and guide me today.

Thank you so much for the Elder's meditation. It is so refreshing to have my heritage expressed and encouraged on the site.

Aoh.

Today I know that my personal power is not aggressive, it's not forceful, it's not about doing. Today I know that my power is in "beingness."

I'm stepping into the light....


hugs,

Works for me. Move over Phinny, I'm coming in too.
