Moses walked along the sandy and dusty trail. He wasn't sure where he was going. With provisions from his mother and a map, he decided to walk toward Kadesh-Barnea. At night, he cried out to the God of the Hebrews to free his people.
One morning before sunrise, he entered a small village and tiredly sat down next to the well. As he sat, he prayed to the God of Abraham for guidance. He watched as a woman with black hair leading some sheep to the well. Moses watched as a shepherd shoved the woman to the ground.
He ran over and grabbed the shepherd by the throat. " Leave her alone". The shepherd ran away.
" Thank you kind Sir".
Moses fell asleep and then later woke up to see the woman standing next to him.
" My father requests that you break your fast and eat bread under my father's roof".
" I would be honored to". He stood up. " And who is your father?".
" He is the Priest of Midian". She smiled at Moses. " My name is Zipporah".
