Fire has long been a symbol for the divine-- perhaps one of the most well known images in the bible is when God speaks to Moses through the burning bush. Surely God chose that bush for a reason, right? Or what if he said "Any old bush will do"? What if any thing could be a bush? Any place? Any person? Accompanying scripture passages are Exodus 3: 1-14 and Luke 3:15-16, 21-22.
