One night a man had a dream, and in his dream he
reviewed the footsteps he had taken in his life.
He looked and noticed that all over the mountains
and difficult places that he had traveled, there was
one set of footprints... but over the plains and down
the hills, there were two sets of footprints, as if
someone had walked by his side.
He turned to Christ and said, "There is something
I don't understand. Why is it that down the hills and
over the smooth and easy places you have walked
by my side; but, here over the tough and difficult
places, I have walked alone; for I see in those areas
there is just one set of footprints."
Christ turned to the man and said, "It is that while
your life was easy I walked along your side; but
here, where the walking was hard and the paths
were difficult, was the time you needed Me most,
and that is why I carried you."
