Footprints in the Sand

One night I had a dream. I was walking
along the beach with the Lord, and across
the skies flashed scenes from my life. In
each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in
the sand. One was mine, and one was the
Lord's. When the last scene of my life
appeared before me, I looked back at the
footprints in the sand, and to my surprise I
noticed that many times along the path of
my life there was only one set of footprints.
And I noticed that it was at the lowest and
saddest times in my life. I asked the Lord
about it: "Lord, you said that once I decided
to follow you, you would walk with me all
the way. But I notice that 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 said: "My precious child, I
never left you during your time of trial.
Where you see only one set of footprints, I
was carrying you."
