One night a man had a dream. He dreamt 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 belonged 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 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 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." |

One night a little boy had a dream. He was on a beach with god. He wasn't surprised to see god on the beach, because if you were god, where would you be? I know that if I was god, and I wasn't on a beach, then I'd want to be in one of those big pits filled with coloured plastic balls. |

The story is called "Footprints". The first time I read it was when I was in 7th grade, after I got in a really bad car accident. My family is jewish, and I'm not really religious, but something about that story is very comforting. :) |
