April 2 - Daily Feast

Most of our thought runs to what we do not have and to what we are not apt to get. Those are fear thoughts and reminders of how we let our minds get on the wrong path. But how can a person have faith in a world so out of focus? Don't self-sabotage. Don't become your own worst enemy. Don't stay ignorant, and do shed labels. Do think beyond the right to be a certain way. If something is destroying you, be smart and get rid of it. And remember that intellectual preaching is not worth dirt if we have failed to meditate on the right words.

Elder's Meditation of the Day - April 2

"With children we always have to think about seven generations to come but yet unborn."

Janice Sundown Hattet, SENECA

What we do today will effect the children seven generations form now. How we treat the Mother Earth will affect the children yet to be born. If we poison the water today, our children's children will be affected by the decision we made. Our children are the gateway to the future. Let us conscientiously think about the children and the seven generations to come.

My Creator, I thank you for my ancestors, seven generations ago.

'THINK on THESE THINGS'
By Joyce Sequichie Hifler

Did you know that when we poke fun at someone else we're covering up our own embarrassment?

We all have shortcomings, peculiarities about ourselves that we take no pride in nor want others to know about. So, frequently we call attention to the "different" traits of others. Sometimes we believe they are not aware of their own problems, but they are. They are superconscious of them, and because of it they must escape through finding something about someone else they believe is worse than their own.

Truly wise persons are those who take their own unique qualities and build around them. Some of the most fascinating people are those who surround their unusual features with such exquisite mannerisms and beautifully developed personalities so handsomely as to make others ordinary.

It has been written by Augustine, "This is the very perfection of man, to find out his own imperfection."
