Footprints in the Sand One night I had a dream. 

I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life, and for each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along my life's pathway, especially at the lowest and saddest moments, there was only one set of footprints. This troubled me, and I asked the Lord about it. "Lord, you said if I followed you in life, You'd walk with me all the way. But I noticed that during the most difficult 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." He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will 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."
