One
night I had a dream. I was
walking
along a beach with the Lord,
and
across the sky flashed scenes
from
my life. In each scene,
I
noticed two sets of footprints,
side
by side in th
One
was mine and one was the Lord's.
When
the last scene of my life
appeared
before me, I looked back,
and
to my surprise, I saw that
during
the lowest
and
sadest times of my life, there
was
only one set of footprints!
"Lord,"
I cried, " you said that once I
|
decided
to follow you, you would walk
beside
me all the way.
But
during the most troublesome times
in
my life there is only one set
of
footprints. I don't understand
why
you left my side
when
I needed you most."
The
Lord turned and looked at me,
His
eyes filled with love.
"My
precious child," He said,
"I
have never left you.
During
your times of trial, where
you
only see one set of footprints,
that
is when I was carrying you."
