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 LORD about it:
"LORD, you said that once I
decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all

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
