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 the set 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 once I decided to follow you, you 'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troubled times of my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why you would leave me when I needed you most."
The Lord replied,"My child. My precious child. I love you and 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."

~Footprints of my Life~
![]() ![]() I woke up early yesterday to go back to JB to take watever I would need for the Xiamen trip and then proceeded to rush back for choir practice with Ms Lim at 5 pm... Prac was until 10 pm. I was dead tired and looking forward to a good night's rest after my bath and guess what happened? The water supply in my hall was cut off! In all my years of staying in hall, nothing of such has ever happened. Imagine the distress I felt. My whole body was sticky and smelly and there was nothing I could do... just felt really frustrated that such a thing had to clash with me preparing to go to Xiamen...That wasn't all, imagine how hopeless I felt when I discussed with Duen Yang and she said that she had called the school and they had replied that this might go on for a WEEK! This meant that I not only couldn't bathe, I couldn't wash up the clothes that I had to pack for Xiamen as well! Just the thought of that was unbearable....=( I felt kinda depressed and again questioned God why this water supply thing had to clash with the Xiamen trip... Of course I know its wrong to do tat, but I was feeling so upset at that time that I couldn't help it... And of course God didn't answer me but I ended my night with a prayer that God would restore the water supply and grant me good health before and during the trip in Xiamen. Haha...And I had a dream during my sleep..I dreamt that the water supply came back and I was bathing... But when I woke up, I knew it was JUST A DREAM and I had to face reality again.. So I was really sianz, I looked at the pail of water which I struggled carrying just the night before from PUB sitting in my bathroom and made plans to go to Hall 6 to bathe and maybe to wash my clothes.. And then I pressed the tap to try my luck and see if there would be any water and YES, there was! Water flowed out the tap in high pressure!! I went to check my shower and flush and there was water as well! Haha...you should have seen the joy on my face manz...I was so happy and praised God for answering my prayer! I didn't know if the water supply would be cut again, so I quickly go and bathe and put ALL my clothes to wash...haha I really thank God for his blessings man.... "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." --Luke 11: 9 MaRGaReT left her footprint @ 12:57 PM
