Here’s a
little inspiration to start your weekend.
Footprints
in the sand
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 of 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, precious child, I love you and I 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.
