Footprints In the Sand Message

In the deepest sleep one night I dreamed
that on the beach I walked.
God was by my side each step,
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 of my life.
"God....you said you'd stay by me-
in good times and in bad....
Why then did you leave me-
each time my life was sad?"
"My precious child," God answered,
"When your life had pain, I knew,
The single set of footprints,
were the times I carried you."

Dinner Prayer

We present at our table,Lord
be here and everywhere adored.
These morsels bless, and grant that we,
may feast in paradise with Thee.

Kitchen Prayer

Lord of all pots and pans and things,
since I've not time to be a saint,
by doing lovely things,or watching late with Thee,
Or dreaming in the dawn light, or storming heavens gates,
Make me a saint by getting meals, and washing up the plates.
Amen
