Holy ground - the place where your life intersects perfectly with God's will - where God is present.
Moses found this moment is his calling at a burning bush - while tending sheep.
Gideon found holy ground while hiding in a threshing pit.
Peter when he went to meet Cornelius to share the Good News stood on holy ground when gentile Cornelius and his family spoke in tongues.
General Cecil Richardson stood on holy ground on a Saturday morning optical store.
Ken Gaub discovered holy ground at a pay phone at a rest stop near Dayton Ohio.
Have you had those moments? When YOU KNEW you were exactly where God wanted you to be doing exactly what God wanted you to do?
If you haven't, you are missing out!
Maybe you've stood on holy ground without realizing it.
Handing out water on tollgate? or hot cocoa at Kohl's? or giving away stuff at the library flea market? installing flooring? hosting a birthday party?
My guess is that you've missed more burning bushes than you realize.
Because I have. Sometimes I have the blessing of instant realization/revelation but often I find those holy encounters in reflection - after the fact.
I want more of them - in the moment.
I need to pray . . . and act.
