And
the Chief Shepherd said to Much Afraid:
"When you continue your
journey there may be much mist and cloud. Perhaps it may
even seem as though everything you have seen here of the
high places was just a dream, or the work of your own
imagination. . .
But
you have seen reality, and the mist which seems to swallow
it up is the illusion. Believe steadfastly in what you have
seen. Even if the way up to the high places appears to be
obscured and you are led to doubt whether you are following
the right path, remember the promise,
'Thine ears shall hear
a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it,
when ye turn to the right hand and when ye turn to the
left.'
Always go forward along
the path of obedience as far as you know it until I
intervene, even if it seem to be leading you where you fear
I could never mean you to go."
