The Burning Bush

This past Sunday I walked into the sanctuary of All Saints Anglican Church where I serve as Deacon and was instantly drawn to focus on the flower arrangement that had been placed near the altar. The image that came to mind immediately was that of the burning bush as described in Exodus and I was reminded that we do indeed stand on holy ground when we come into the presence of God, be that in a church or anywhere else. This reminder of the burning bush, as it came from the flower arrangement, challenged me to enter into worship that morning with the realization that what we do on Sunday morning is no small thing, and that our only posture is to be one of grateful humility as we approach the One who Is.
