Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 21            

"The greater the faith, the greater the result."
 
-- Fools Crow, LAKOTA  

The Creator designed us to act on faith. We are able to do this by holding firm to our
beliefs. If we believe something and if we don't want the belief to change, we need to
add the power of the Great Spirit to this belief. We must always have the spiritual added
to our beliefs. If we don't add the Spirit, then we may very well change our minds the
first time we are tested. Each time we are tested and we don't change our minds, we get
stronger. The wind may blow on the red willow trees bending them and causing the roots
to grow deeper. The more the wind bends the tree, the bigger, stronger, and deeper the
roots grow. We should be happy that we are tested. It's the Creator's way of making us
have greater faith for greater results.     
           
Great Mystery, Grandfather, I know if I am tested today that I can count on You to give
me the courage to get to the other side. On the other side of every test is the reward of
strength. Make me strong.
