FootprintsOne night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking along
The beach with the Lord. Across the sky
Flashed scenes from his life. For each scene,
He noticed two sets of footprints on the sand,
One belonged to him, and the other to the Lord
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
He looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his life
There was only one set of footprints. He also noticed
That it happens at the lowest and saddest times
In his life
This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord
About it. “ Lord, you said that once I decided to
Follow you, you’d walk with me all the way. But I have
Noticed that during the most troublesome times
Of my life, there is only one set of footprints.
I don’t understand why when I needed you most
You would leave me. ”
The Lord replied, “ My precious child, I love you
And I would never leave you. During your
Times of trail and suffering, when you see only
One set of footprints, it was then that
I carried you.”
