Footprints

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.

In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.

Somtimes there were two sets of footprints.

Other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed that

During the low periods of my life when i was

Suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat,

I could see only one set of footprints,

So I said to the Lord “You promised me,

Lord, that if I followed you,

You would walk with me always.

But i noticed that during the most troubling periods

Of my life there have only been

One set of prints in the sand.

Why, When I needed You most,

You have not been there for me?”

The Lord replied,

“My Son, My precious child,

I love you and I would never leave you

During your times of trials and suffering,

When you only saw only one set of footprints

It was then I Carried You”

such an awesome story <3 u God!!!!!! thanks for being here when i needed you most!
