"When I see the first light of dawn breaking on distant mountains, I know the Spirit is with us. When I hear the wind flying through the branches of forest trees, I know the Spirit is with us. When I feel the strength of ocean waves pushing me back to shore as if I were a toy, I know the Spirit is with us. The power of creation is all around us. It is proof that a strength greater than ours holds life in hands both immense and yet sheltering. Our struggles are many, but against the energy and expanse of the Spirit, they are only ripples in a pond. Trust in the reality of the Spirit: a presence you can see, hear and feel."
The Rt. Rev. Steven Charleston, Native American/Indigenous Ministries of the Episcopal Church
