On Top of the World

It was a beautiful day and a trecherous road up the mesa known as "Turning Rock". The absolute center of Dine'Tah, the high place where traditional Navajos believe first man and first woman emerged after a great flood. We were a mixed bunch of worshipers, the youngest being 6 months old, the elder over 60. Men and women, Navajo and Biliganna, hot coffee and the sound of drums. Pearlene read from Isaiah 51 "Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness, who seek the LORD, Look to the Rock from which you were hewn, and to the quarry from which you were dug..."
This was not "our" event and we were honored to be included. The sky was an incredible blue...Isaiah 51:6a "Lift up your eyes to the sky, then look to the Earth below." The view was incredible. Awesome. I wonder how many people, who have not been blessed to experience such a view, can actually comprehend the meaning of the word "Awesome". The Lord has put such a burden in our hearts for this land and its people, such a love in our hearts for our Navajo brothers and sisters. It was a beautiful day, a day of prayer and a day of blessings...Glory to God!
