Guided As I Travel

In Isaiah’s vision of the Lord, I could see a revelation forming in my mind as I read: the seraphim flying could have been led or guided by the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity.
It doesn’t say that, but that is what I saw in my mind's eye when I read chapter seven.
Verse two says that as they flew, they covered their faces. I wonder if this was so that their eyes could not lead their path.
When we see what lies ahead, we become dependent on what we see in front of us; it enters our minds. Then we decide to move forward or not based on what our mind translates from what we saw.
Moving forward or backward then becomes a decision made from our own “thought” about which way we should go, based on our own safety or free will.
And in the same manner, our minds tell our feet what to do based on all of that happening beforehand.
I wonder if the seraphim covered their feet, so they could do nothing voluntarily to lead their body in any direction other than what the Lord wanted them to do.
This could be why they traveled by their wings…
While there is still some voluntary movement in a traveling mode, such as wing motion, the wings remain dependent on the wind—something outside the personal body.
I am wondering whether they would intentionally glide forward or backward by the movement of the Holy Spirit of God, using it as the wind beneath their wings?
If they chose not to use their own self-governed faculties but instead used the parts of them that would put them in a dependent place of only moving as the spirit guides, then where the spirit led would most assuredly be the place they would go.
Today, as I move, shake, rattle, roll, and wonder all over my town, I take note from the seraphim.
Instead of making my own plans, I chose to be guided by the Holy Spirit as I travel.
