Footprints

In one of my earlier posts I mentioned the poem Footprints. Those of you who know it, here it is again, and those that don't here it is:

One night I had a dream. I dreamed I was walking along the beach with God, and across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonged to me and the other to God. When the last scene in my life flashed before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that at times along the path of life there was only one set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and addest times of my life. This really bothered me and I questioned God about it.
"God, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would walk with me all the way, but I 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 would leave me."
God replied, "My precious precious child, I love you and I would never, never leave you during your times of trials and suffering.
When you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."
