Native American Wisdom:
Why We Need God
"The smarter a man is the more he needs God to
protect him from thinking he knows everything."
--George Webb, PIMA
A spiritual person needs to be careful. The more confident
we are, the more likely our egos will get us into trouble.
It's relatively easy to become self-righteous. We start to
think we are teachers and others are students. We start to
judge others. We start, very subtlely at first, to play God.
After a while we really get good at it. This is very dangerous.
We need to remind ourselves, we are here to do God's will.
We need to pray every morning. Each day we need to check in
with God to see what He would have us do. At night we need to
spend time with God and review our day. By doing these things,
we will stay on track.
