Footprints

One night a man had a dream.

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 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 precious, 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."
