   
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~
 This morning, I just want to praise the Lord who has been by my side through every trial and celebration. I am thankful that no matter what happens, I can find exceeding joy in Him. Exceeding Joy I have found exceeding joy, Jesus answered when I called this Name that has saved me, pure love that embraced me. Mercy, grace, eternal life. Bought from darkness to His light. While lost in my sin, He raised me and made me live. Chorus: My soul magnifies the Lord, my heart joys in God my Saviour, for He lifts the lowly, He's done great things for me. I will sing, praising evermore, He is mighty and Holy is His Name. I will lift my head up high, praising Jesus through each trial. Though I have not seen Him, I love Him completely.
