The following is a Cherokee Prayer published in "How to Pray Without Being Religious" by Janell Moon
"Look, I see the Sun. He is my father. He is my beginning.
Look, I see the Moon. She is my Grandmother, My guardian keeper.
Look, I see the Stars. They are my friends, my relatives.
Look, I see the Universe. I see myself."
Blessed Be!

What a great prayer! I’ve heard lots of Native American prayers over the years, but not this one. It is so simple, and so true. Look, I see the Universe. I see myself. Thank you for sharing it, Claudia.
I love this, Claudia. Easy to remember and pray everyday! Hugs!
Thanks for this. The day I got to be your friend here was why I joined this group and I was right… You’re simply the best.
Namaste,
Kathy

Centria, Mila, thank you for your kind words - I fell in love with this prayer the moment I saw it! Hugs to you, dear ones!
Beautiful! Thank you, my sister.
I added your poem to the Prayers thread on We are One. It seemed to fit perfectly.
Having Native American Blood running through my ancestry and in me I appreciate how grounding and natural this is.
With Gratitude!

In all our hearts, there is a prayer like the Cherokee Prayer, and it sits right in the middle of our understanding.
We wish you well.
