Footprints in the Sand - The Poem

by Mary Stevenson

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 in 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 times 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 son, my 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."
