Footprints of God

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 belonged 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 would you leave me?"

The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child
I love you and I would never leave you.
During those times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints, 
it was then that I carried you !!!!"
