Footprints In The Sand
By Margaret Fishback Powers
One 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 in thesand,
one belonging 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 happened at the very
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
in 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 trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was
then that I carried you."
