Elders' Meditation of the Day: Jan 2nd 2013

Elder's Meditation of the Day - January 2
 
"People have to be responsible for their 

thoughts, so they have to learn to 

control them. It may not be easy, but

it can be done."
-- Rolling Thunder, CHEROKEE
 
We control our thoughts by controlling 

our self talk. At any moment we choose

we can talk to ourselves differently.

The fight comes with the emotions that

are attached to our thoughts. 

If our emotion is high and seems to be

out of control, we can say to ourselves

STOP IT!, take a few deep breaths, 

then ask the Creator for the right 

thought or the right decision or the

right action. If we practice this 

for a while, our thought life will be

different. It helps if in the morning 

we ask God to direct our thinking. 

God loves to help us.
 
Great Spirit, today, direct my thinking

so my choices are chosen by You.
