Footprints
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 at the footprints in the sand. He noticed
that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it
happened at the very lowest and saddest time 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'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times
of 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 precious, 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."
