FOOTPRINTS 
 
One night a man had a dream 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: o~e belonged to him, 
 
and the other to the Lord. 
 
When the last scene of his -life flashed 
 
back at the foot prints in the sand. He noticed 
 
times along 
 
the path of his life there were only one set of 
 
so noticed that 
 
it happened at the very lOW _ and saddest  
 
This really bo .I 
 
nd he ~~iffti~~d 
 
"Lord", you said tha . 
 
Rlded to 
 
, you'd walk with me all 
 
the way. But I h iced that during the most troublesome times in 
 
my life there is on  e 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 I would never l~ave you. During your times of trial 
 
and suffering, when you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I 
 
carried you".
