Hmmm

File under: never caught that before.

And Moses said, "I will turn aside to see this great sight, why the bush is not burned." (Exodus 3:3 ESV)
- reading that again this morning it dawned on me that the initiation of this encounter was God revealing himself in the bush. Yet Moses needed to respond to the prompt before he it was revealed that it was God in the bush. The world is hungry for that personal encounter with God. Perhaps if we would stop to look at some of the amazing things around us, we might actually meet God in the midst of it.

Moses was doing his job and got distracted by a bush that was on fire. I'm far too busy to get distracted by the out-of-the-ordinary moments in life.
Blessed distraction - keep your senses on the look-out for those things that us away from the everyday. It might be a God moment.
