Moses wasn't exactly ascended the ladder to success in his early days. I doubt he was on Egypt's 40 under 40 list. He thought he was doing right by intervening against the Egyptians, but he didn't fit in either group, so he ends up fleeing to Midian, away from the power of the day. Most probably expected he'd disappear at this point, lost to the pages of history.
God works in such mysterious ways. It's easy to assume that we have a good understanding of what God will do next, but we'll be mistaken if we think we can wrap our heads around God. God transcends our reality, and God sees things that we simply cannot -- so it's best to assume that wherever we are, no matter how far we may feel from the will of God, God is likely at work, preparing us for the next step of faith, setting the course for us to grow in faithfulness, to learn dependence on God, and to drink daily from the Living Water.
