Okay, so once again there is a totally awesome poem that I think I should share with you guys. You may have heard it before, but it's still a good thing to read. This poem is called "Footprints in the Sand." There are many doubts about who the author is, but whomever it was, they wrote awesome poems. You guys should definitely check this out. Here is the poem:
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering
from anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?"
The Lord replied,
"The times when you have seen
only one set of footprints in the sand,
is when I carried you."
Okay, this is really all I have time for to post today. I just wanted everyone to see what an awesome example of how God is always with us. God really does carry us in the times that we need Him. If you don't believe me, check out Hebrews 13:5. By the way, four days until the book signing in Arkansas when I meet Bryan Davis! I can't wait. Sorry, Araken and Ian. . .:) Thanks for reading and please comment!
God bless you!

I have heard it before, and have always liked it. In fact I was just thinking about that poem a few days ago.
It's too bad we don't really know the poet who wrote that.
You going to see Davis? Awesome! Tell him to give a thumbs-up for a manuscript he might recieve from AMG. HA HA!
I've heard that before too, but I forget exactly where... don't ya hate it when that happens?!?!
Tell Mr. Davis I said Hi, and that he has to come to North West Washington sometime!!
