                        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 
                    of 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 child, I 
                   love you and I would never leave you. 
                 During your times of trial and suffering, 
                 when you saw only one set of footprints, 
                    it was then that I carried you.”
