The Poem Reads: Footprints In The Sand - One night a man had a dream . . .He dreamed he was walking alongthe beach with the Lord, andAcross the sky flashed scenes from his life.For each scene he noticed two setsof footprints in the sand,One belonged to him and the other to the Lord.When the last scene of his life flashed before them,He looked back at the footprints in the sand,He noticed that many timesalong the path of his life,There was only one set of footprints.He also noticed that it happened at the verylowest and saddest times in his life.This really bothered him andhe 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 mosttroublesome times in my life,There is only one set of footprints.I don"t understand why in times whenI needed you most, you should leave me."The Lord replied, "My precious child,I love you and I would never, never leave youduring your times of trial and suffering.When you saw only one set of footprints,it was then that I carried you."
