he was walking along the beach with the LORD.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
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."
One of my favorites-I carry it with me. Sometimes when we cannot see God that is simply because it is at that moment when He is standing so close to us, that our very shadow blocks our view of Him, but He is there.Hang in there--we love all of you, even Kyle. Dad
