There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Moses was introduced in this narrative as a Hebrew baby who was adopted by Egyptian royalty, but the privilege that Moses experienced as a prince collided with his passion for justice for his people. Unfortunately, Moses\u2019 passion resulted in the murder of an Egyptian and Moses found himself an exile in the desert. It seemed like his life was over, but God was just beginning with Moses. Our ambitions can cloud God\u2019s plan for our lives, but God faithfully takes us to what we may consider \u201cthe far side of a desert\u201d to guide us toward His purposes.\u00a0 ~ Dave Whitehead, Senior Pastor, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gracenyc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">GraceNYC.org<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"ylb-container\" style=\"background-color:E6E6E6\">\n                   <a href=\"#\" class=\"ylb-close\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iowawebnet.com\/havefaith\/wp-content\/plugins\/mtx-license-plugin\/images\/close-icon.png\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t   <p><div style=\"background-color: #F8F8F8; color: #3B5D9B; font-style: italic;  font-size: 10px;\">\r\n<fieldset style=\"border: #FFF dotted 1px;\" >\r\n<legend><strong>Iowa Web Network<\/strong><\/legend>\r\n<span style=\"padding-left: 15px;\">This article is subject to Creative Common License.
