Turning Aside To Look

[S] Exodus 3:3-4 --

 ³So Moses said, "I must turn aside now and see this marvelous sight, why the bush is not burned up."
 ⁴When the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here I am."


[O] Moses' decision to go see this marvelous sight triggered God's response to him.  Had he just bypassed that scene, then there was no reason for God to have called him "Moses, Moses!"  I am thinking: 1) do I make enough opportunities for me to run across marvelous sights that God is working in?  2) When I see one of those sights do I adjust my current course of actions to explore further or just too busy going on with my life and schedules?  I desire to hear God's voice but if I don't set up my circumstances of doing that, it'll just be my own wishful thinking far from actually happening.  Moses did not ignore the hint God provided in his usual daily path and according to verse 4, "When the LORD saw that he turned aside to look," God called him.  That's when God involved Moses into His plan of salvation.

[A] Continue to adjust my schedule so I will start each day with a devotion of God's word in order to "run into" His marvelous sight and have the margin of time to turn aside to seek further what God has in store for me.

[P] Dear God, I desire to adjust my schedules to have the "burning bush" experiences.  Please allow me to adjust my daily schedules to capture these moments of running into Your signs.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
