Footprints In The Sand

Footprints In The Sand

One night I dreamed I was walking along the 
beach with the Lord.  Scenes from my life
flashed across the sky.  In each, I noticed 
footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints; other times there was only one. 

During the lowest times of my life I could see 
only one set of footprints.  So I said, "Lord, 
you promised me, that you would walk with 
me always. Why, when I have needed you the most, 
would you leave me?"

The Lord replied, "My precious child,
I love you and would never leave you.
The times when you have seen only one set of footprints,  it was then that I carried you."
