One night I had a dream- I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord and across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonged to me and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before us, 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 times 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 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 don’t understand why in times when I needed you most, You should leave me.”
The Lord replied, “My precious, precious child. I love you and I would never, 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.”
