Eventually perhaps, fortune and fame would leave his thoughts altogether. Their memories would become so distant it would seem they never existed, but certainly never to the point that Moses would no longer be haunted by this unfortunate turn of events. His lack of any foreseeable successes would now be, as Paul stated, a thorn in his flesh (cf. 2 Corinthians 12). Always there, taunting him. Never leaving, even for a moment, and never yielding. Oh, the heart may remain steadfast, but the flesh would struggle. Moses would become a washed up has-been, but the process of becoming a washed up has-been is not a position someone just assumes, or acquires. The position is not given to you.

No two hour lunches to discuss activities of the approaching weekend with friends. Long hours, very long hours. Perhaps eighteen or twenty-hour days were the rule rather than the exception. Likely, first to rise, last to lie. Exhausted, day after day, he toiled for forty arduous years, nearly 15,000 days in the sweltering heat and freezing cold alone with his thoughts. No purpose. Then God showed up.…
