A Poem I adore: Footprints in the Sand : Unknown Author

One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.

After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.

This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.I don't understand
why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me.

"He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."

Poem : What Seeds are you Sowing? : Authored by Deborah Ann Belka:

Some scatter seeds of anxiety,
and harvest nothing but fear
some collect in their memory
the reason for all their tears.


Some spread seeds of gloom,
and collect grains of doubt
some gather up their losses
when there’s a spiritual drought.


Some cast seeds of excess,
and reap in what they sow
some collect worldly pleasures
thinking God will never know.


Some throw seeds of greed,
and amass envy and pride
some lose their hope and faith
when their will, with God’s collide.


Some scatter seeds of doubt,
and harvest nothing but fear
but those who mock not God
sow the seeds of repentant tears

Galatians 6:7
King James Version
“Be not deceived;
God is not mocked: for
whatsoever a man soweth,
that shall he also reap.”
