March 9 Cherokee Devotional We are not always granted the privilege of going back and doing things differently. If we were, could we? We might if we had new knowledge. Otherwise, we would do the same thing we did before. It was all we knew. Every race has had its Trail of Tears, in fact, every individual has suffered and agonized over what he might have done. Gentle people hope that by cooperation things will work for all concerned. It isnt in the hearts of the gentle to think that others do not have their same heart-felt ways. But challenges in the present time are sufficient without adding the past. If we know so much now, we need to use it. We can, sometimes, project ahead of knowledge. If we lack such inner knowledge, if we lack wisdom, we need to ask. And then we listen for the still small voice of direction. Chief Ross led in prayer and when the bugle sounded and the wagons started rolling many of the children waved their little hands goodbye to their mountain homes. Private John Burnett
