Last night I had a dream.
I dreamed I was walking along the
beach with the Lord. Across the
sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets
of footprints in the sand: one
belonged to me, the other to the
Lord.  

After the last scene of my life
flashed before me, I looked back
at the footprints in the sand. I
noticed that at many times along
the path of my life, especially at
the very lowest and saddest
times, there was only one set of
footprints.

This really troubled me, so I
asked the Lord about it.  “Lord,
you said once I decided to follow
you, You’d walk with me all the
way. But I noticed that during the
saddest and most troublesome
times of my life, there was only
one set of footprints. I don’t
understand why, when I needed
You the most, You would leave
me.”

The Lord replied, “My child, my
precious child, I love you and I
would never leave you. During
your times of suffering, when you
could see only one set of
footprints, it was then that I
carried you.”
