Butt Prints In The Sand of Life
One night I had a wondrous, yet awesome dream
One set of footprints there I saw
The footprints of my Precious Lord
But mine were not along the shore.
But then some strange prints appeared
I asked the Lord, "What have we here?"
Those prints are large and round and neat
"But Lord, they are too big for feet."
"My child," He said in somber tones
"For miles I carried you along
I challenged you to walk in faith
But you refused and made me wait."
"You disobeyed, you would not grow
The walk of faith you would not know
So I got tired, I got fed up
And there I dropped you on your butt."
"Because in life there comes a time
When one must fight and one must climb
When one must rise and take a stand
Or leave their butt prints in the sand."
"Life is a journey of faith, a walk with God."
"...the righteous ones shall live by faith. But I will take
no pleasure in anyone who turns away..." Hebrews 10:37-39 (NLT)
