I was carrying you in my arms...

Machine translation.

Hello,

The tracks in the sand!

One night, a man had a dream.

He dreamed that he was walking by the sea in the company of the Lord.

Against the backdrop of the sky, he watched the scenes of his life unfold.

He noticed two parallel sets of footprints in the sand in each scene.

One was his; the other was the Lord's.

In the final scene, he turned around to see the footprints on the beach.

He then realized that at various points in his life,

There was only a single footprint.

And that these moments of solitary walking corresponded

in the saddest and darkest hours of his life.

Intrigued, he says to his companion: "Lord, you assured me that you would always

to walk at my side if I agreed to join You.

But I realize that during the hardest periods of my life,

There is only one footprint left in the sand.

Why did you abandon me at the moment I needed you most?

The Lord then turns to him and answers:

My child, my very dear child, you know that I love you

and that I would never abandon you.

You must understand this: if you only see a single footprint

In the most difficult moments of your existence,

So that's just, simply,

I was carrying you in my arms...

To be meditated upon

Happy reading

Hello,

It's very beautiful, thank you Marylena!

Hello my dear friend Marylena,
It’s so beautiful… Sometimes we feel like we’re alone in the world, left to our own devices, meaning without help, without friends, and without any way out, etc. But we’re wrong, because we’re never truly alone, and there’s always someone ready to lend a hand, an ear, or some good advice. It’s up to us to understand and try to make it on our own, rather than always waiting for others or for the Lord. He gave us intelligence, neurons, friends, family, health, money, and so much more.
Something to deeply reflect on…
Big kisses

Hi,

Very nice text!

I will go even further: When there is only a single footprint, it is not the Lord who has abandoned man, but man who has abandoned himself.

It is when we abandon ourselves that we think we are everyone.
Let's regain our self-confidence, and we will see that we are never alone.

Friendship

Ouillet, a magnificent read…

Ouellet, it is excellently written, and I think I am still quite bewildered.
