BEAUTIFUL SMILES!

Having already done Derelict Sunday earlier this week, I was wondering what I could do as my Blip for today.  

We went to church and after a great service when we were encouraged to think about where we were in our “Walk with God” I spotted Mr. HCB chatting to his friend, Lillieth and there was my Blip!

My walk with God is rather slow at the moment, but I’m sure that it won’t be like this forever and although I know I’m not ready to run a marathon any time soon, I know that He is carrying me and I am confident that in His time, I will be healed.

One night a man had a dream. 
He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. 
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. 
For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, 
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him, 
he looked back at the footprints 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 and saddest times of his life.

This really bothered Him and he questioned the Lord about it. 
“Lord you said that once I decided to follow you, 
you'd walk with me all the way. 
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, when I needed you most, you would leave me.”

The Lord replied, 
“My precious, precious child, 
I love you and I would never leave you! 
During your times of trial and suffering 
when you see only one set of footprints, 
it was then that I carried you.”

P.S.  Thank you for all your kind comments and stars for yesterday's blip - I'm pleased the various tins evoked memories for so many.
