Exodus and Revelation
July 17, 2019
A study for Moses and the Burning Bush by Henry Osawa Tanner, an important African American ex patriot who took up residence in Paris during the early 1900's to join the flourishing artistic community there.
God's revelation to Moses came about through Moses' noticing something strange and taking the time to investigate it, not shrugging it off or deciding he was too busy. He then had the humility to take off his shoes and follow instructions from the unseen God.
God's revelation to us also comes through seeing with the eyes of faith the inconsistencies in the world, taking the time to ponder and investigate them and having the humility to accept the inspiration of the Holy Spirit to do something unexpected.
