As Moses walked toward Mount Sinai, he looked up seeking God. For about forty years, he tended sheep flocks for his father in law Jethro. He considered himself a simple shepherd. He walked toward the high mountain. At a certain spot, he found a good place to rest. He got on his knees. " Lord, remember your people in Egypt". He got up and continued walking.

All of a sudden, something caught his eye. He walked up to what looked like a bush on fire.

" Moses! Moses!".

He trembled in fear. " Here I am".

" Do not come any closer". The voice hesitated. " Take off your sandals".

Moses was confused.

" The place where you are standing is holy ground".

Moses took off his sandals.

" I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob".

In fear, Moses fell onto his knees.

" I have seen the misery of my people in Egypt". The voice hesitated. " I have heard their cry".
