Exodus
3:1-6, 9-12 (please don’t skip verses
7&8)
Reading
today’s passage from Exodus (but not skipping verses 7-8) about Moses, Mt
Horeb, and the burning bush, worked on my imagination. Perhaps it is because I am twice a new
grandmother that I kept thinking about how we used to play hide and seek when my
own kids were very little. Like Moses,
they would ‘hide their faces.’ In their
little world they thought by hiding their face they were in fact hidden from
me!
Like
Moses, I hide my face. Am I just hoping
that God will pass me by and call upon another?
Moses starts out so strong: Here
I am! And then quickly thereafter: Who
am I?
God’s
presence always leads to mission. But I
kinda like just staying in the presence part!
