He leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness for his name's sake.
Psalms 23:3 (KJV)
He always has a purpose in His leading. He knows where the bits of green
pasture are, and He would lead His flock to these. The way may be rough, but it
is the right way to the pasture. “Paths of righteousness” may not be straight
paths; but they are paths that lead somewhere—to the right place. Many desert
paths are illusive. They start out clear and plain, but soon they are lost in
the sands. They go nowhere. But the paths of righteousness have a goal to which
they unerringly lead. –J.R. Miller
