Carried

Here I am after a long absence from my blog.

Haven't had any time for one thing and I'm just to busy doing other things on the web to stop and just write.

but now that i have a moment I feel like writing something, yet I don't know what?

It always amazes me how God created us, and how He leads us on to what's best for us.
something just popped into my head a few days ago i forget when it was, either in Sunday school or just talking after bible study or something.

I was thinking about how God Never leaves us.

People will leave us and let us alone to die or in Paul's' case sit in prison.
But God will Never leave us or forsake us.

and that brought back a story i heard about a few years back.
I looked it up and found it so I wanted to share it.

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 precious, 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."
