One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he
was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For
each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in
the sand; one belonging to him and the other
to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flashed before
him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of his
life there was only one set of footprints. He also
noticed that it happened at the very lowest and
saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he questioned the
Lord about it. "Lord, you said that once I
decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the
way. But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome time in my life, there is only one
set of footprints. I don't understand why when I
needed you most you would 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 see
only one set of footprints, it was then that I
carried you."
