Footprints In The Sand – A Poem About Jesus

footprints in the sand Footprints In The Sand   A Poem About JesusOne 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 two sets 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 that once I decided to follow you, You’d walk with me all the way. But I have 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 son, 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.”

Who is Jesus? Over 2,000 years ago Jesus was crucified in Israel for saying that "He is the son of God." Unfortunately at that time they didn't know any better that they were indeed crucifying "the son of God." The nature of man is that we have both good and evil in us, which in God's eyes is not acceptable in heaven. Jesus came to take away our sins so that we could all be accepted into heaven. He paid the price for man's sins. That is why I love him so much, because he loved me even before I could ever know him.
