Uncle Ed Red Eagle Sr. was a Wise and Godly man. He always imparted wisdom into his conversations and never left God out of the mix.
I want you to notice the wording Uncle Ed used when he said " Ask God into EVERYTHING You do".
He didn't say...
"Ask God into Church, but leave him out of work."
"Ask God into Prayer, but leave him out of sports."
"Ask God into some things, a few things, maybe one important thing?"
Nope, he said Everything. You get the point.
Consider the words in one of my favorite scriptures: "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done." -Philippians 4:6
Uncle Ed understood that we as human beings are also Spiritual beings. We are created by God and created to be in relationship with God. There is nothing to Big or to small in our lives to ask God into. That being said, here is something that I believe Uncle Ed knew and was passing on to us in that statement. Prayer is important.
You see by asking God, we are actually praying. That's what prayer is, a conversation with God. So, when we are asking God into everything, then we are by it's very nature praying about everything. We are asking God to be in the midst of all we have going on and are doing in our lives.
If you ever had the opportunity to listen to Uncle Ed pray... Then you know that he had an intimate relationship with God. You know that he asked God into everything. Ed talked the talk and walked the walk.
I'm not sure who this is for (hopefully for a lot of people), but today I encourage you to consider the wise words of Uncle Ed Red Eagle Sr. and "Ask God into Everything You do".
