Deuteronomy 33:1 - 34:11
Joshua 1:1 - 2:24
Today we said farewell to Moses. We have been journeying with him for the past 49 days! So it is a little sad to see him go. But some exciting things are already beginning to happen for the children of Israel. And I can't wait for us to read everything God is about to do for them.
It has been forty years of wandering, and I am sure wondering, wondering if God was really going to do what He said He was going to do. And I got chills today as I read Joshua telling his leaders, Get ready! In three days we are crossing the river Jordan and taking possession of the land God has given us! Joshua 1:10
Sometimes I wish I could have been a fly on the wall to see these things happen. But obviously we can't do that so we'll just have to use our imaginations. :)
So today my emotions swung from sad to see Moses go, to stoked to see Joshua go!
In January 2011 I had the amazing privilege to stand on Mount Nebo where Moses stood and looked over the Jordan Valley to the promised land and I want to share a few pics with you so you too can see what Moses saw and what Joshua is getting ready to conquer.
Thanks for journeying with me...
and Moses.
Happy Thursday,

| Looking to the right Moses saw the Gilead Mountains |

| Looking to the left he saw the Dead Sea (just over the tree tops) |

| And straight ahead he saw the Jordan Valley & River and in the distance Jericho, Bethlehem and Jerusalem |
and Moses.
Happy Thursday,
