Prayers and blessings for my Soul family!

Wisdom from Chief Seattle..."You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of our grandfathers.So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the Earth is rich with the lives of our kin.Teach your children what we have taught our children, that the Earth is our mother.Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of the Earth.If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.This we know - the Earth does not belong to man - man belongs to the Earth.This we know.All things are connected like the blood which unites one family.All things are connected."-Chief Seattle, 1854Today's Prayer SelectionsFor cities and towns, factories and farms, flowers and trees, sea and skyLord we praise You for the world and its beauty.For family and friends, neighbors and cousinsLord, we thank You for friendship and love.For kind hearts, smiling faces, and helping handsLord, we praise You for those who care for others.For commandments that teach us how to liveLord, we thank You for those who help us to understand your laws.And for making us one family on earth, the children of One GodLord we praise You, who made all people different, yet alike.-Jewish Liturgy* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Bless us O' Lord as we sit together.Bless the food we eat this day.Bless the hands that made the food.Bless us O' Lord.Amen.-Irish mealtime grace
