Grand Canyon-Majesty

 

“O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!” ( Psalm 8:1)

My first glimpse over the rim of the Grand Canyon caused me to speak in a whisper.  “MAJESTY” is my word for it.  Certainly only God could create something so awesome, and thus it was as if Creation and Creator became one in that moment.  I stood in AWE at the grandeur.  I stood in AWE before the presence of God…Majestic and Majesty.

Looking across the canyon I could see young people standing on a cliff.  Clearly they were experiencing MAJESTY as well.  The photo on the left gives you perspective on how high they stood over the canyon depths.  If you look closely or zoom in, you can see them at the top left of the photo.   The photo on the right shows their reaction to God’s creation…

The quote of the day for me….Standing on one of the cliffs I overheard a youth nearby say to his Mom, “It’s beautiful what nature and time can do.”  YES!  I had certainly thought about nature making this beauty, but time was a new thought.  Of course, time played a role in making this beautiful!

I read again the comment my friend Barbara wrote in a recent blog post…”deeply knowing that the love between friends transcends time and space forever!”.  Truly, that is beautiful!  And it’s even bigger than the Grand Canyon!
