One night I dreamed . I was walking along the beach with my Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprint in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my lord. When the last scene of my life shot before me, I looked back at the footprint in the sand. There was only one set of footprint. I realised that
this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma.

" Lord, You told me that You would walk and talk with me all the way. But I am aware that during the most difficult times of my life, there is only one set of footprints. I just don't understand why you left me when I needed you most."

God whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you. During your tests and trials, I was overcome by an immense urge to help you. I carried you on my shoulders; the single set of footprints which you see during this very difficult period are mine, not yours.


God is helping us at all times, provided we are open to receive the grace.
