Walking With Moses

Today I walked atop Mount Nebo for an hour.  I thought about Moses as I viewed the beautiful River Valley.   Canaan was more spectacular. There are only two references to Mount Nebo in the Bible.  Because it is the death place of Moses, it is an important biblical mountain. Deuteronomy tells us that Mount Nebo is in Moab; an ancient kingdom in the land known today as Jordan  bordered by the Dead Sea and the Arabian Desert. The inhabitants of the kingdom were ancestors of Lot via his eldest daughter.  I tried to imagine a scene greater than the valley below.   The view made me feel small and of little importance in God’s Kingdom.
