Two Wolves!!

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life…”A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

“One wolf is evil.   This wolf is filled with anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt, and ego.

“The other wolf is good.   This wolf is filled with joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on inside you and inside every other person as well.”

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his old Cherokee grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”

The old chief simply replied, “The one you feed.”

The good person brings good things out of the good stored up in their heart, and the evil person brings evil things out of the evil stored up in their heart. For out of the overflow of a person’s heart their mouth speaks. 

Thanks to Shelby Waltz for the picture. 

Which wolf do YOU see being fed in the people YOU observe every day?  Which wolf within YOU do YOU tend to feed?

DEAR GOD: I NEED YOU MORE THAN EVER.  PLEASE BRING PEACE TO MY CONFUSION, JOY TO MY SADNESS AND HOPE TO MY HEART!
