"Which wolf do you feed?"

Click here to listen to Dr. Joey tell his story!

One evening an old Cherokee grandfather told his grandson about a battle that was going on inside himself.
"My son," he said, "the battle is between two wolves. One wolf is evil—anger, envy, greed, and ego. The other wolf is good—peace, love, hope, and faith."

The grandson thought for a minute about this battle between the two wolves going on within his grandfather.
Then he asked, "Which wolf wins the battle, Grandfather?"

And the wise, old Cherokee grandfather simply said, "The one I feed."

So who do you feed—the evil wolf or the good wolf within you? Do you nourish your anger, envy, greed, ego and the rest of the pack? Or, do you nourish your peace, love, hope, faith, and the rest of that pack?

The choice is yours. Feed carefully what’s inside of you. Whatever you feed, grows. So ask God to guide your choice as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living today.
