I JUST RECIEVED A COMMENT FROM A VERY NICE PERSON WHO LEFT THIS POEM FOR US AND I AM STILL BAWLING LIKE A BABY. THIS TRUELY MADE MY DAY... I WANT TO THANK THIS PERSON VERY MUCH.
One night I dreamed of walking along the shores of different lands.
I could tell that You were with me by the footprints in the sand.
As I gazed upon the heavens, I saw pages of my life.
It was then I realized that You remained there by my side.
When the clouds began to gather and the rains came falling down,I looked to only find one set of footprints on the ground.
I said, "Lord, why did You leave me in the troubled times of life?
I believed that You would always walk beside me day and night."
(Then I heard:)"My precious child, I'd never leave you.
I have carved you on the hollow of My hand.
It's then I carried you in My arms,When you see one set of footprints in the sand
"Dear Lord, will You be with me as I travel through the years?
Will You be there in the struggles? Will You wipe away the tears?
As my eyes turn toward the ocean and the shores of distant lands,
I'm still thinking of the single set of footprints in the sand.
(I heard Him say:)"My precious child, I'd never leave you.
I have carved you on the hollow of My hand.
It's then I carried you in My arms,When you see one set of footprints in the sand."
TODAY'S POST IS JUST UNDER THIS...............

Michelle,
that is a lovely poem. Alan and I had it hanging on our wall at our old house for years. I wonder where it is now that we have moved. Somewhere....somewhere safe. The poem is SO true.
Love Charisse
