Exodus 3 · Grade 2
A Bush That Didn't Burn Up
Read the Story
Moses was taking care of sheep near a mountain. He saw something amazing. A bush was on fire, but it did not burn up! Moses went to see this strange sight.
God called from the bush, Moses! Moses! Moses said, Here I am. God told Moses not to come close, and to take off his sandals, because it was holy ground.
God said he had seen his people's trouble, and he would send Moses to Pharaoh to bring them out of Egypt. Moses asked God's name. God said, I AM WHO I AM. God promised, I will be with you.
