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, 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 saddest and lowest 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. "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". Always and Forever, Andrea xx
