Holy Ground Is All Around

You’re not looking for God in the supermarket. You don’t expect to see God in traffic. You don’t usually have a religious experience while doing homework, standing in line at the bank, or eating cereal. Moses was certainly not expecting to have a divine encounter during another quiet shift keeping an eye on the sheep. Coyote, maybe. The Holy One of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, not likely. Yet when he climbed up to see the now-famous burning bush, God was waiting for him. Look more closely: Could that be God trying to get your attention?
