Exodus 3:3-4 “And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt. And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.”
It’s interesting to note that Moses has a conversation (of sorts) with himself about what he is going to do. Ultimately deciding to turn toward the bush.
Another important observation is that God waits for Moses to turn before He speaks. I wonder how often we have noticed a sign sent by God, choosing to press forward instead of adjusting course for a closer look?
It is not insignificant that Moses made a choice to leave his typical path to hear from God. Those of us who make our own way in life, oblivious to circumstances and situations God may use to guide us, make a grave mistake.
Our burning bush may not be quite as obvious, but it will certainly catch our attention. Let’s be prepared to “turn aside” and see a great sight today.
