"Behold the sky, and know that it is not separate from you, nor from the earth, nor from the Creator.

The heavens speak through every cloud, every ray of sunlight, every gust of wind.

Just as the sky shapes the weather, the Spirit shapes the soul. Open your hearts to its messages."

"See how the wind moves freely, without restraint? So must your soul learn to move with the Spirit.

Do not bind yourselves to fear or pride.

Let the Creator’s guidance flow through you, carrying you above the petty struggles of the world, just as the winds lift the leaves and the clouds."

(Yahaawzhowa pointed to the clouds) "Notice how they change, never the same from moment to moment, yet always part of the heavens.

Your thoughts and feelings are like clouds. They rise, they fall, they gather, they pass.

Do not fear them. Do not cling to them.

Observe them, let them teach you, and trust that God’s hand moves through them, shaping the currents of your soul."

"Even the wind, unseen and untouchable, shapes the world.

So too does God’s Spirit shape your life.

You may not see it, you may not understand it, yet it moves within you, guiding, refining, calling you to truth.

Your heart is a sail, your soul a vessel. Trust the unseen hand that moves you."

"The wind cannot exist without the earth, nor can the earth survive without it.

So too is your spirit connected to God, to the land, to your brothers and sisters, to the creatures of this world.

No action is meaningless, no thought is unseen.

Each ripple of your soul carries the reflection of heaven."

"Do ye see how it bends, how it lifts, how it can soothe or rage? So too is life.

Sometimes the Spirit will comfort you, at other times it will challenge you.

And both are gifts. Embrace the gentle wind, but do not fear the storms.

Both teach you patience, courage, and the depth of the soul."

"Your soul must learn to soar.

Rise above small fears, small sorrows, small anger.

Lift your spirit to the heavens, for there you shall see the guidance of God in the patterns of clouds, the flow of winds, the flight of birds.

The heavens are alive with lessons, if ye only watch and listen."

(Yahaawzhowa pointed to a hawk circling high above) "See how it rides the currents, never fighting them, yet always moving with purpose.

So too must your heart ride the currents of life.

Do not resist God’s guidance, even when it challenges or frightens you.

Let your soul be lifted, guided by the winds of Spirit, until it soars with understanding and grace."

"Remember this, the sky is endless, yet you are part of it.

The winds move freely, yet they are not separate from the heavens.

So too is your soul connected to God, infinite in its potential, yet guided by divine care.

Listen for the wind, children of the Spirit.

Let it teach you patience, courage, humility, and love.

And know that the Creator is always with you, in the earth, in the sky, and in the very breath that carries your soul."
