Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about

A battle that goes on inside all people. He said, 'My son,

The battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all.

One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret,

greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority,

lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity,

humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity,

truth, compassion and faith.'

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then

asked his grandfather: 'Which wolf wins?'

The old Cherokee simply replied, 'The one you feed.'

Ain't it the truth.


14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

17For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

18But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

I read this years ago so bear with me,

One day a young boy had started a bad rumor about a man in the neighborhood and when his parents heard this they made him go apologize to the man. When he went to apologize to the man he gave the boy a fist full of feathers and said that on his way to school the next day that every so often he should drop a feather and when he dropped them all to come back and talk to the man. After school the boy returned empty handed and asked the man what to do next, the man told him to go back and find all the feathers he had dropped. When the boy came back he said that he could not find any of the feathers that he had been given and said that no matter how hard he tried he couldn't find or get them back. The old man told the boy that, like the feathers, every time he started a rumor it was like a feather that he would never get back. Long story short: keep your feathers with you.
