GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator, may I always remember, when I cannot find the right words to pray with. All I have to do is look to those who have gone before.
Thank you my Creator for the wisdom of the ancestors!
And may I never forget to PRAY!
A Navajo Grandfather's Prayer
Oh, Great Creator of all that lies before me, I am grateful you have travelled through life with me. Please continue to help me. I wish to follow in your way. I wish to be true to your direction. I wish to travel the road of new life, health and peace. For I know many gifts come to those who follow this road. I am humbled you have not let me travel the lonely roads alone. You have comforted my hurts and problems. Bless my mind this day to be clear and to be able to see things as they truly are. Let my soul be open to your influence. Help me, today to comprehend Mother Earth and the things upon her. Let these things teach me. As I have walked this road, each day has been brighter. As you have asked of me, I will believe, have faith, and look for the things you have for me. And with these things I will bless the lives of my children, grandchildren, my brothers, my sisters, and all my relations.

Grandfather Peter's Prayer for Today
GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator, Help me today to find the true meaning of “Walking in Balance”
.THE LAW OF BALANCE.
(Finding a middle way).
“To Walk in Balance” is an old Native American saying. Balance applies to our Body, Mind, Emotions and Spirit and to all levels of our being.
Anything we do, we can underdo or overdo. Our Earth walk can be likened to a pendulum. If our actions or habits swing too far to one side they will inevitably swing an equal amount to the other side. The key is to try to keep the swings either way to a minimum, to find the middle way, “To Walk in Balance”
To find the middle way, the balance point, can be a daunting task, but it must start with action. We can never find a true balance point for ourselves unless we are first willing to take a step forward. “To Walk” first requires us to take a step of faith in anything we do. We will inevitably make mistakes, but this is part of the learning and experience process. But more important in learning, we gain understanding.
A warrior learnt to fire his arrow on target by first making an attempt to hit the target. He would almost certainly be short, too long, or one side or the other of the target. His next attempt would probably be an over correction. But with practise he would learn and hit the target. Isn’t our lives much like that? With practise and experience we learn. Then we can be closer to our personal truths and really learn the meaning of “To Walk in Balance” and to “Walk our Talk”.
