Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage?
His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him an leaves him alone. He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help to anyone.

彼の父は彼を森林に連れて行き、目隠しし、彼は彼をほっておきます。
彼は、朝の太陽光の光線までそれを通して目隠しの布を取り除くことはできません。
夜通し切り株 の上にに座っているのを要求されます。 彼は誰にも助けを強く求めることができません。
彼が夜を生き抜いたら、彼はMANです
He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own.

個々の若者が成人に自分で入らなければならないので、彼はこの経験を他の少年に話すことができません。
The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him . Maybe even some human might do him
Harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man!
Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold.

野生の獣はきっとあたり一面に居たに違いありません 。
風は草と地球を吹きつけて、彼の切り株を触れたけれど、彼はストイックに座り、決して目隠しの布を取り除きませんでした。 それは、彼が人になるかもしれない唯一の方法です！
Once he survives the night, he is a MAN.
最後に、恐ろしい夜の後に、太陽は出現し、彼は彼の目隠し布を取り除きました。
It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.
He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his son from harm..
彼が、彼の隣の切り株に座っている彼の父を発見したことがその時でした。
彼は夜通し、害から彼の息子を保護しました。。

We, too, are never alone.
Even when we don't know it, God is watching over us, Sitting on the stump beside us.
When trouble comes, all we have to do is reach out to Him.
私達も一人ではありません。
私達がそれを知らない時にさえ、神は私達のそばにあり、チャレンジしている切り株の私達を

トラブルが来る時には、 そこで学ぶ必要があります。 彼にそれを差し出すことになっています 。

If you liked this story, pass it on.
If not, you took off your blindfold before dawn.
Just because you can't see God,
Doesn't mean He is not there.
"For we walk by faith, not by sight."
ただ神に会うことができない。。。
彼がそこにいないと思わないでください。
「というのは、私達は視界ではなく、信頼によって歩くからです。」
