"I must go over to look at this remarkable sight..."

"There an angel of the Lord appeared to him in fire flaming out of a bush. As he looked on, he was surprised to see that the bush, though on fire, was not consumed. So Moses decided, 'I must go over to look at this remarkable sight, and see why the bush is not burned.' When the Lord saw him coming over to look at it more closely, God called out to him from the bush, 'Moses! Moses!' He answered, 'Here I am.' God said 'Come no nearer! Remove the sandals from your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground...I have witnessed the affliction of my people in Egypt...Therefore I have come down to rescue them." Exodus 3:2-8

You, as a disciple of Christ, are the bush which finds itself spitting fire, surrounded inside and out by flames.

Those who are fellow disciples will draw strength and guiding light from the flame you are bearing to the world. Others who do not know God will pass you by; they may not notice, or they may give you a wide birth. Some will look long enough to realize that this little bush is not consumed by the flames. When a soul decides to give this novelty greater scrutiny, his will moves towards the Lord. When the Lord sees this movement He will call out to the soul by name. If the soul answers, God will reveal the holy ground on which it stands. He will witness to the soul the affliction it has suffered and promise bring to it to a land of milk of honey.
