Death Native American Prayer For The Deceased

We’re thankful that you were with us, and we’re sorry that you’re not anymore. But we will always love you and remember your lessons. We hope that wherever you are now, it’s peaceful and beautiful.

Now that you’re at rest

Now that you’re at rest, your journey almost done. We are all thankful for the time that you spent with us. Your lessons were many, soft spoken and true. The love in your heart you shared with all of us will never be forgotten.

Your journey almost done

The journey is almost done.

You have done well, and now you will be with your ancestors.

Your goal is accomplished; your journey is over.

We’re all thankful for the time

As we are thankful for the time we had with the deceased and for all that they taught us, let’s remember that sometimes it’s okay to be sad and feel emotions. This is a time to be honest with yourself about your feelings. It may be hard sometimes to express them, but remember it is okay to cry or even laugh when you think of something funny your loved one used to say or do. Remembering their quirks can help you remember how much they loved life, which will make it easier as well in remembering how much love they gave us while they were here on earth.

That you’ve spent with us

• You’re leaving us now.
• We know that you are going on to your next journey and we wish you well in your travels.
• We’ll miss you, but we know that you’ll be with us in our hearts always.
• Thank you for the joy and laughter, sadness and tears.

Your lessons were all many

Father Sun, Mother Moon, Father Sky,

Mother Earth and Grandfather Thunder;

You have all taught me many things.

I have learned from the dead, from the living and from the earth itself.

From you I have learned that we are all connected to each other as a web of life.

Soft spoken and true

• Soft spoken and true: The speaker should be soft spoken, and he/she should not speak of the deceased with disrespect. The speaker should also be truthful about the life that the person lived, even if it is something embarrassing or shameful.
• Honest: Honesty is one of the most important gifts you can give to your loved ones when they are gone. Nothing will make them feel more loved than being able to express yourself honestly without fear of judgment, so tell them everything you have wanted to say but never did while they were alive!

The love in your heart you shared

As you remember your loved one, it’s important to focus on the love that is within their heart. Love is a shared bond that connects people together and makes them human. Love is what makes us special and unique from all other beings in this world. Love is a way of life, a feeling of joy and happiness that gives us hope for tomorrow when we wake up each morning. There are so many ways we can express our feelings when it comes to love; whether it be through our words, actions or by just being there for someone who needs us right now!

The most important thing you can do during this time is continue showing how much they meant to you while they were alive by sharing your own experiences with others who care about those close friends & family members as well (ie: siblings).

Taught us to be giving too.

Native Americans are known for their generosity, respect for the earth and its resources, respect for each other, and respect for the dead.

• Native Americans believe that one must be generous in order to prosper. They believe that one should share with others what you have so that others may prosper too.
• The earth is sacred for Native American people because it provides them with all their needs: food, shelter, clothing and medicines. They give thanks to the earth before taking anything from it and they never waste anything once they have taken something from it (such as leaving behind a broken arrowhead).
• Native Americans live in harmony with each other through respecting each other’s ideas or opinions without having to agree with everything said by another person. This allows everyone involved to feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of being judged by anyone else involved in these conversations because no one ever criticizes someone else unless asked first before doing so during discussions among friends or family members who know each other very well.”

A Native American prayer for the deceased

A Native American prayer for the deceased

I pray to you, grandmother, who loved me so much. I pray that your spirit will guide me in all my endeavors, and I pray that you will watch over me as I continue to grow into an adult.

I have grown up with stories of the things you did in your life, and how much we miss you. You were always there for us when we needed help or guidance with something new or scary. Your wisdom was always sought after by everyone in our clan because they knew what a kind hearted person you were!

We know today is your birthday; even though we cannot be together physically on this day anymore, we celebrate our connection through our hearts (and souls). We love and miss you so much!
