He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake

Psalm 23:3

He leads me in “circles of justice”. David chose a Hebrew word that means circle (מעגל). It looks, in some ways, as if he says God is leading him round in circles! But there is some profound truth in this.

Things in our life repeat themselves. It seems like going in circles.

When we walk with God, we are going up in a spiral of growth.

The Hebrew says that God leads us in circles, or cycles of righteousness, for His name’s sake. God is committed to our growth, and our journey with Him, so that He gets the glory. He wants us to grow in righteousness.
