3 So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up.”
Stepping out of his routine, and his to-do list, enabled him to walk on holy ground!
Amazing to think that the bush always burns, that God is always in “this place” and we do not see it!

I think the burning bush was 'always burning' but I doubt if Moses was rushing and needed to slow down. He looked and then decided to “turn aside” to see better (Exodus 3:3). It's when he turned aside that God called to him. This to me is more than just stopping. It's a deliberate focus of the attention on something away from the path Moses walked – stepping out of his way in order to see God's way(s).
