WITHIN THE SHADOWS


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: one belonging
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. 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.
