One night I had a dream. I dreamed I was
walking along the beach with the Lord. Across
the sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene,
I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one
belonging to me. And the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of 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 one set of footprints. I also
noticed that it happened at the very lowest and
saddest time in my life.
This really bothered me and I 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 the most you would leave me.
The Lord replied, “My son, My precious child,
I love you and 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.”
