“If you will make Creator’s good road your first aim, representing his right ways, he will make sure you have all you need for each day.

So do not worry about tomorrow’s troubles. It is enough to trust Creator to give you the strength you need to face today.

“This is why I am telling you not to be troubled about getting enough to eat or drink, or what to wear. Is eating, drinking and clothing yourself all there is? Does your life not have more meaning than this?

Instead, find a quiet hiding place where no one can see or hear you and send your prayers to your Father in secret. He will see what you have done and honor you.

“Instead, when you send your voice to the Great Spirit, here is how you should pray: “O Great Spirit, our Father from above, we honor your name as sacred and holy. “Bring your good road to us, where the beauty of your ways in the spirit-world above is reflected in the earth below.

“Provide for us day by day—the elk, the buffalo, and the salmon. The corn, the squash, and the wild rice. All the things we need for each day.

“Release us from the things we have done wrong, in the same way we release others for the things done wrong to us.

“Guide us away from the things that tempt us to stray from your good road, and set us free from the evil one and his worthless ways. Aho! May it be so!

“Remember, our Father from the spirit-world above will release you from your wrongdoings in the same manner you release others from theirs.

“Look to the winged ones who soar on the wind. Do they plant seeds and gather the harvest into a storehouse? No! But your Father from above gives them plenty to eat. Do you not know he cares even more for you?

“Take care not to store up possessions on earth that can be spoiled by worms, eaten by moths, or stolen by thieves. Instead, give away your possessions to the ones in need, and then you will be storing up great possessions in the spirit-world above, where nothing can be lost or stolen. For where you store your valued possessions is where your heart will be.” Among the tribes of Wrestles with Creator (Israel) a greedy person was said to have a bad eye and unable to see the good road. A generous person was said to have a good eye, full of light and able to clearly see the good road.

“No one can be loyal to two rival chiefs. You will have to choose between them. You will either hate one chief and love the other, or honor one and resent the other. You cannot be loyal to the Great Provider and to possessions at the same time.

“If Creator covers the wild grass in the plains with such beauty, which is here today and gathered for tomorrow’s fire, will he not take even better care of you? Why is your faith so small?

“But when you help others who are in need, do it in secret. Do not even tell your left hand what your right hand is doing. Then your Father who sees all things will honor you.

“Beware of doing good just so people can see you, for then you will receive no honor from your Father from above, who is the Creator.

“When you go without food to seek spiritual things, do not be like the ones who put on a false face. They hang their heads down and darken their faces to look as if they are going without food. They only want people to notice them and think they are spiritual. I speak from my heart, they already have all the honor they deserve—they will get no more. But when you go without eating, put on your headdress and wash your face, so others will not notice. But know that your Father from above, who sees in secret, will honor you.
