In reading the story of calling Moses to lead His people, notice how God motivates the reluctant leader. Talking from a burning bush didin't hurt! Moses has two questions, "Who am I?' followed closely with, "Who are you?" What are your first questions when God calls you to ministry?
Look at Exodus 3: 1-14. God begins with a vision of who He is. He sees. He notices. He hears. He rescues!
Is that significant? I think it is. God doesn't work Moses into a self image frenzy finished with a chorus of "Yes I can!" "I am wonderful!" "I am awesome!" Instead, he begins with a vision of who He is.
Your vision of God. If you think God loves the lost, you will share your faith. If you think God is judgmental, you will be harsh in your judgements. So, God gives Moses a clear vision of who He is.
What is your vision of God?
Don't hide it under a bush!
