FEBRUARY 13 "FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND"
One night I had a dream,
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the lord
And across the sky, flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand.
One belonged to me and the other to the Lord. When the last
scene of my life flashed before us, I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life, there was only one set of
footprints. I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times
in my life.
This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it.
“Lord you said that once I decided to follow you, you would walk with me all
the way. But I have noticed that during
the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I
don’t understand why in times when I needed you the most, you should leave me.
The Lord replied, “My precious child, I love you and would
never leave you during your times of trial and suffering. When you saw only one
set of footprints, it was then that I carried you!
