He leadeth me

In Isaiah 41 verse10, God says that He will uphold us with His right hand. In the same chapter, verse 13, God says that He takes hold of our right hand. So here we have our Lord holding our right hand with His right hand. God is not known in Scripture to use His left hand. So how does God lead us by holding our right hand with His right hand - unless of course, He faces us. Try picturing how this is done in our minds. If that be the case, then as He guides us, He walks forwards to lead us and we walk backwards. As a youth many years ago we used to live near a convent. I am always fascinated when I saw nuns going for their evening walks. They will walk in pairs, facing each other. The one walking backwards never need to look behind to see where she was going because she was guided by the eyes of the one going forwards in front of her. If God is leading us this way, we need not look backwards. Just look into His eyes through our eyes of faith and trust Hims for the path He is leading us. Praise be to God for His leading hands.
