I watched the Calgary guy at the Bull River tell his story about coincidences. I showed it to my wife. She mentioned this poem that I had never before heard. I said, "Wow..."
You never heard this story before?! Now it's my turn to say Wow. :D
"For He Himself has said, and the statement is on record, 'I will not, I will not cease to sustain and uphold you. I will not, I will not, I will not let you down.'" Hebrews 13:5 Weust expanded translation of the New Testament.
You speak of also Hebrews 2:18, and 1st Peter 2:24. As he Himself Christ did...
but He Himself (Christ) also called out to his Father
Matthew 27:45–46.‘Why have you forsaken me".. He felt abandoned.. as many of us Followers of Christ do. But much much more.
"Feeling" abandoned and being abandoned are very different things.
With me it was drag marks.
One of my absolute favorites. Thank you
Footprints in the sands of time
In deepest sleep, one night I dreamed, that on the beach I walked, God was by my side that day and quietly we talked.
Then on the sky my life was flashed, the visions all serene. Two sets of footprints in the sand were there in every scene.
But then I noticed in some scenes of suffering, pain, and strife. Just a single set of footprints at the worst times in my life.
Lord you said you'd be with me in good times and in bad. Why then did you leave me? Just when my life was sad?
My dear child God answered, when your life had pain I knew. The single set of footprints are the times I carried you.
My parents have a copy of this as art in their house. It's been a favorite of mine since I learned to read.
