He never fails...  email this discussion to a friend?

the Lord replied, "My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trials and sufferings,
when you see only one set of footprints,That was when i carried you,"I've heard this for so many times in my life but never really understood it. I was a kid when i first read this poem but instead of understanding the meaning, i was like somewhat terrified by the story. I thought it was a horror story or something. That wasn't until i reached schooling in my gradeschool and the teacher explained the story to us. I thought it wasn't bad at all. But still, i didn't get the meaning.
I forgot about it as time passed by. I thought, if the author published his name, he could've make millions or billions from it. Still, i didn't get the meaning.
Just this morning, i attended the mass here in Our Lady of Mercy parish church and today's homily was all about it. or somewhat all like about it. The celebrant talked about the "footprints" and came to my thoughts i might get the answer i wanted from this priest. And i never failed.
After moments of sermon, I lost my concentration to the mass because i was thinking about the homily. I thought the poem was very much for me. I could relate from it. I was like the man and his dream. Sometimes blaming, cursing and hating God for leaving me alone. But i was wrong. Really wrong.
Now, i've found it out. God never fails. God never rebuked us. He's always there for us.

..indeed you're right jbaunillo.. God never fails.. he may not always answer our prayers the way we want Him to answer it but God knows what's best for us and God knows what we deserve.. I have so many personal experiences on how God loved me so much.. Right now, I'd say that had it not been because of God, I know I never reach this point of my life.. I had always been alone and away from my family and there are so many times when I fell like quitting but God has his own way of assuring us that life must go on, and that we have God on our side.. Life was never easy for me, yet I'd say that it was neither too difficult.. It was challenging and I've proven so many times that God is true and nothing is really impossible with Him.. He has always his own way of correcting us.. Just like you, there were times when I question God like "why is this happening to me? or what did I do to deserve this?" but when I look back, I would always remember how God carried me all through my way and that makes me repent of what I've said to Him.. God is very loving and He will never let us down.. It is just a matter of prayer and being faithful to Him..
