Footprints in the Sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes
from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets
of footprints, other times there was one only.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one
set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,“You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you, you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life
there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when
I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”
The Lord replied, “The years when you have seen only one set of
footprints, my child, is when I carried you.”

of your troubled heart And did you ever walk out
upon that lonely desert island upon which you were
wrecked and say, “I am alone — alone — Alone —
nobody was ever here before me”? And did you suddenly
pull up short as you noticed, in the sand, the footprints of
a man? I remember right well passing through that experience-
and when I looked,lo, it was not merely the footprints of
a man that I saw, but I thought I knew whose feet had
left those imprints. They were the marks of One who had
been crucified, for there was the print of the nails. So I
thought to myself, “If He has been here, it is no
longer a desert island. As His blessed feet once trod
this wilderness-way, it blossoms now like the rose and
it becomes to my troubled spirit as a very garden of
the Lord!"

Courage to change the things I can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference
