A da nv do, shine upon me
As I wake in the morning You are there. When I lay down my head, You are there. To show me direction To show me the way When I am down in the valley You are there. standing upon the mountian still You are there. O Great Spirit, Shine upon me with grace. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This is my favorite prayer it was written by a Native American named Paul Conley Aniwodi in 1996.

what a beautiful prayer thunderbear.. i had a dream last night that someone would post in Sanctuary about Spirit very soon... interesting how things happen... i often think about how we are all connected in spirit... it's in the music we listen to, the art we contemplate, the hope we share, the care we have for others... i imagine a Spirit which rises above us all, lives within us all, is in everything around us at all times if only we notice..
have a happy day

That sounds a whole lot like a Psalm that King David wrote!

Tomi, which Psalm? We aren't allowed to post it here, even if it is very similar to what someone else posts, but you can post it on one of the blogs, and share the link.

I'll post it both on my blog and yours, Sweety. Don't know why I didn't think of it. LOL
 Thanks for reminding me, my angel! EDIT: It's on both our blogs, Hon!

Thanks Tomi! It is a little tricky to find. Did you know that you can link to a specific post? If you go to the comments, that's the URL for that post - like this:
http://septembermorn.psychcentral.ne...irit/#comments God often uses more than one teacher to say the some thing. Maybe because some people will only hear the message when it comes from one source and not another. But the message is for all.

Rap, thanks for posting the link. I enjoyed both the OP's poem and what is in the blog! Two different people, thousands of years apart, both with very similar messages! That is so cool!
Indeed the Spirit can share His messages and His many comforts using many people to carry them. |

"To show me direction
To show me the way" I have always felt that way...... something inside of me so great showing me the way... leading me threw the best of times the worset of times.... the spirit I see everyday in my childrens eyes.. my dog, my cat, every where i go.... when i look at the mountains my soul is moved.... everyday i sit outside.....everyday at the same time a little bird comes and sits real close to me....he sings..or talks....so small he is... I can see and feel the spirit in him...... TY(((thunderbear))))) this has really got me thinking....... |

Thanks for sharing your favorite prayer. I hope that it doesn't offend when I say that its message is the same as one that I believe too, that I have tried to share. I believe that the source is the same, as God or the Great Spirit loves all of His children and is there for all. So many people try to pit "my god" against "your god," without seeing that it is the same god. It's tragic.
Yes, He is there. And for everyone. He will show us the way if we let Him.

Truly, God working through two men thousands of years apart but the same message. No matter where we find ourselves or even if we're trying to hide, God is there, ready, willing and able to help us through whatever obstacles come into our lives.
So be it!

(((Thunder bear))))
Your spirit prayer really moved me. I kept thinking about it.... It kept bringing memories back. I could not place it. Today I remember after looking at a few things of My grandfathers. My step grandmother as I have said before was Indian.((full blood)) I will not go into the whole thing as this is your thread. ((one that has moved me)) imo When my grandfather passed on his funeral was done almost mostly Indian. His spirit was the hawk. He was given that. Every time I see a hawk I can feel him. The prayer you posted was read there. I knew I knew it. Most of the ceremony I did not understand as it was done in Indian.... It was done at a funeral home to keep peace in the family I guess.... The prayer was on the card they give out.....I went and looked today. I want to thank you for posting this....... I hope this was not to much off topic... you really moved me thank you the lamb muffy |

(((everyone)))))
this mornings view is of the craggly old bush emerging from the side of a limestone like cliff.. the rocks crumble away from the rains erosions... some how a little seed caught caught in there and some sun and rain gave it life... that was long ago.. today the tree is dead.. its roots exposed to open air too long... but it hangs on fiercely, with its own will against the forces of nature... it knows someday it will fall.. but today, its my beautiful view of Spirit... |
