Neeny, I have this quote on the board by my computer . I added a picture of a woman with her arms outstretched toward the ocean as the sun rises. I often read it when I'm feeling unsure or very stressed and it helps me feel more secure. It reads...

When you have come to the edge of light that you know
and are about to drop into the darkness of the unknown,
Faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on, or you will be taught to fly.

Stay strong and I'll keep you in my prayers during these trials.

Neeney,

I hope the lyrics of the following song, sung by Celtic Women and the poem help. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

Footprints in the Sand

One night I had a dream--
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord
and across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints,
one belonged to me and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest
and saddest times in my life.
This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you would 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 in times when I needed you most,
you should leave me."
The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,
I love you and I would never, 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."

...Mary Stevenson
