Footprints
One night i had dream....
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord
and across the sky flashed scenes from my life
From each scene I noticed two set of footprints in the sand
one belonged to me and the other to the Lord
When the last scane in my life flashed before me.
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life,
there was only obe set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened
at the very lowest and saddest times in my life
This really borthered me and I questioned the Lord about it
"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you would walk with me all the way, but I have noticed
that during the most troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints"
"I dont't understand why in times when i needed you most,
you should leave me"
The Lord replied " My precious, precious child,
I love you and I would never , never leave you
during the times of trial and suffering"
"When you saw only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you"
