Footprints- Margaret F. Powers @1964

One night i dreamed a dream.
I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed
scenes from my life.
For each scene, i noticed
two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to me
and one to my Lord.
When the last scene of my life
shot before me I looked back
at the footprints in the sand.

There was only one set of footprints.
I realized that this was at the lowest
and saddest times of my life.
This always bothered me
and i questioned the Lord about my dilemma.
"Lord, You told me
when i decided to follow You,
You would walk and talk with me all the way.
But I'm aware that during
the most troublesome times of my life
there's only one set of footprints.
I just don't understand why,
when i needed You most, You leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child,
I love you and will never leave you,
never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints
it was then that i carried you."

This message surprised me a lot. :) It was a bookmark given by amy. Thought it was nothing much but it strikes me a lot when i read. :)
