THE ZIGZAG PATH
We climbed the height by the zigzag path
And wondered why — until
We understood it was made zigzag
To break the force of the hill.
A road straight up would prove too steep
For the traveler’s feet to tread;
The thought was kind in its wise design
Of a zigzag path instead./It is often so in our daily life;
We fail to understand
That the twisting way our feet must tread
By love alone was planned./Then murmur not at the winding way,
It is our Father’s will
To lead us Home by the zigzag path,
To break the force of the hill. Author unknown
