Footprints 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 footprints in the sand;
one belonged to me and the other
to the 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 the path of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.I
also noticed that it happened to me 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 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!:)
