Footprints in the sand. One night I had a dream. I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes of my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonging to me, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints. I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times of my life. This really bothered me and I 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 precious, 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. With the look of reclaimed wood, our New Horizons Plaques feature an inspirational sentiment. Each plaque is individually boxed and is ready for hanging via a keyhole.
