one night a man had a dream.he dreamed he was walking along the beach with Allah.across the sky flashed scenes from his life.for each scene,he noticed two sets of foot prints in the sand;one belonged to him n the other to Allah.
when the last scene of his life flashed before him,he looked back at the foot prints in the 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 very lowest n saddest times in his life.
this really bothered him n he questioned Allah about it."ALLAH YOU said that once i decided to follow YOU,YOU willwalk with me.but i have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life,there is only one set of footprints.i donot understand why when i needed YOU most, YOU would leave me.
ALLAH replied ,"my loving follower I love u and would never leave u.during your times of trial and suffering,when you see only one set of footprints ,it was then that I carried u.
