Foot Prints 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 the sand, 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 notice that many times along the path of
his life there were only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happen 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 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 do not 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"... copyrighted poem used by permission |
