Footprints in the Sand





One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.





In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.





This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,





"You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?"





The Lord replied, "The years when you have seen only one set of footprints, my child, is when I carried you."





Mary Stevenson, 1936
