Shepherd

Moses awakened into a new day,  recalling his overwhelming task. This was the way, he was certain now, no more wavering this time, no more self-doubt. Besides, no other way had worked for him, or had taken him anywhere good.

All were dead ends until now, until this path of lasting promise. He no longer looked without into the dark weakness of a fearful, stumbling human civilization, hot and restless with uncertainty.

Instead, he looked within now to the primordial light illuminating his destiny, a perilous path back to God's enigmatic palace of pain and impermanence here on Earth, in this flesh, with a fresh resolve of higher recognition, a new and inclusive regard for all creation. Moses knew what he had to do.
