'your words is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.' psalms 119:105
if you were given a second chance to make the same decision, would it be the same?One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with
theLORD. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene he
noticedtwo sets offootprints in the sand: one belongingto him, and the other to
theLORD. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at
thefootprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his
lifethere was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at
thevery lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him andhe
questioned the LORD about it : "LORD, you said that once I decided to followyou,
you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the
mosttroublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I
don'tunderstand 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
yourtimes of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints , it
was then that I carried you."
