Moses encounters a mysterious phenomenon: a burning bush that is not consumed. The central word is esh (אש, pronounced "aysh"), 'fire'. In Jewish thought, fire symbolizes both a calling and an inner drive—the passion that persists without destroying, when it's grounded by purpose.
You, too, have moments of burning curiosity, longing, or conviction. Sometimes, a calling appears as a small flame that won't leave your heart. The miracle is not in the fire itself, but in its enduring, undamaging quality—a lesson in channeling energy wisely.
Reflection: Today, consider: Where do you notice a steady "fire"—a desire or curiosity—that inspires and energizes you, yet never overwhelms? How might you listen to it?
