In today’s episode, I will be talking to the ones who feel so far away from God. I know He is aware and has given me this poem to remind you.
I pray this blesses you!
Footprints In The Sand
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 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."

Hello friends!! A little back story on these devotions.
I’m an avid thrifter and I love old books. One day while out, God placed an old book in my path. I had no idea how this little book would completely take me to a new place in God and with my life.
I shared the book with my YouTube family and they ask me to share readings from it with them. God began to stir in me about doing just that. After a bit of conflict from some on my main channel, (they didn’t like the “devotionals”), I called out to my prayer warrior friends. After much prayer, I started a completely new channel devoted to all things God!!
I read a “conversation/ prayer” from this book God put in my path and He gives me the words and interpretation.
So what is the book? It’s an older book copyright in 1968. The title is “I’ve got to talk to somebody, God” a woman’s conversations with God by Marjorie Holmes.
I pray over each reading and God shows which one to read.
I truly hope each one blesses you!
