PhotOpRinTs 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 PhotOpRinTs [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 PhotOpRinTs [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, precious child. I love you, and I would never,
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.....
