One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord, “You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there have only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, you have not been there for me?”
The Lord replied, “The times when you have seen only one set of footprints, is when I carried you.”
Jesus (age 30) Desert Caravan Leader Could you have had but one look at him, you would have known that Jesus was a real man of great experience in the things of this world. ... What he aimed at in his life appears to have been a superb self-respect. 140:8.20 | http://mm.spiritualfamily.net/Urantia_Book-Online_Reader-2019/Paper_140.html#140:8.20
