Footprints
One night a man had a
dream.
He dreamed he was walking
along a beach with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed
scenes from his life. For each scene,
He noticed two sets of
footprints in 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 were only one set
of footprints.
He also noticed that this
happened
At the very lowest and
saddest times in his life.
This concerned him,
So he questioned the Lord
about it.
“Lord, You said that once
I decided to follow you,
You said you would walk with me all
the way. But I have noticed
That during the most
troublesome times in my life;
There were only one set of
footprints.
I don’t understand why
when I needed You the most…
You would leave me.”
The Lord replied, “My
precious child, I love you
And would never leave
you. During your times of trial
And suffering, when you
saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I
carried you.”
