Josefa Romero Amador's Obituary
One night a woman had a dream. She was walking along the beach with the Lord, and across the sky flashed scenes from her life. In each scene, she noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one made by her, and the other by the Lord. When the last scene of her life flashed before her, she looked at the footprints in the sand and noticed that many times along the path of her life there was only one set of footprints. She also noticed that it happened at the worst times of her life. This bothered her, so she asked the Lord about it. “Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you’d walk with me all the way. But, I’ve noticed that during those times of trouble there is only one set of footprints. I don’t understand why you left me when I needed you most.” The Lord replied, “My precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trouble where you see only one set of footprints, I was carrying you.”
