FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND



Over all my burdens
And through all my fears,
Jesus carries me.
Through all my trials
And through all my tears
Jesus carries me.













One night a man had a dream. And 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. And he noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that this seemed to happen at the very lowest and saddest times of 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, "Oh, 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, I didn't leave you. It was then that I carried you."













Over all my burdens
And through all my fears,
Jesus carries me.
Through all my trials
And through all my tears
Jesus carries me.
