I took this picture of the ocean view by our house. It looks like God is shining his light down thru the clouds!

footprints in the sand

footprints in the sand
i love taking cool pictures of the ocean, flowers, birds, etc. one of these days ill buy a better camera and make a hobby out of it! just like my little sister jessica, although she's a lot better than me! but i took this picture of my own footprints and it reminded me of that cool story about jesus and the footprints in the sand. it goes like this...

Footprints in the Sand


One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from
anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.

So I said to the Lord,
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?"

The Lord replied,
"The times when you have
seen only one set of footprints in the sand,
is when I carried you."
