Episode 1108 “Barefoot”

Today’s meditation comes from The Book Of Exodus in The Old Testament and from the writings of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, with music by Cody Martin.Passage: Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 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. So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up.”When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!”And Moses said, “Here I am.”“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is sacred ground.”  —Exodus 3:1-5Perspective: Earth's crammed with heaven... but only he who sees, takes off his shoes. ―Elizabeth Barrett BrowningMusic: “Home Is Where The Heart Is” by Cody MartinNarrator: Ryan Phipps
