"Look at the beautiful teachings the Creator has put in that little stream. Feel the gentle water and see how gently and lovingly it touches your hands. It travels through deserts and mountains and many places, but it never turns its back on anyone or anything. Even though water gives life to all living things, it is very humble, and always seeks the very lowest spot. But the spirit of water, also, has great faith, power and patience. Even if a great mountain stands in its path, it keeps moving and moving until finally that mountain is washed into the sea and is no more.
These are spiritual gifts and capacities that the Creator has given each one of us. If we are to be happy within ourselves, with one another, and fulfill the Sacred Prophecies we must always do the best we can to develop these sacred spiritual qualities and capacities.”
