每個(gè)人都希望上帝能在自己人生低潮的時(shí)候幫助自己。在生活中，每個(gè)人都有自己的上帝，而且他們有一個(gè)共同的名字叫“父母”。

One night a man had a dream.He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the God. Across the sky flashed1scenes from his life.Each scene，he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand；one belonging to him and the other to the God.

一天夜里，有個(gè)人做了一個(gè)夢，他夢見自己在和上帝沿著沙灘漫步。他一生的經(jīng)歷在天空一幕幕地閃現(xiàn)出來。他注意到在每一幕中沙灘上都出現(xiàn)兩排腳?。灰慌攀撬?，另一排是上帝的。

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 in his life.

當(dāng)他生命的最后一幕閃現(xiàn)在眼前時(shí)，他回過頭去看了看沙灘上的腳印，發(fā)現(xiàn)在他生命的旅途中有好多次只有一排腳??；他同時(shí)也注意到這種情況總是發(fā)生在他一生中最低落的階段和最傷心的時(shí)候。

This really bothered him and he asked the God，“God，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 troublesome2times of my life，there is only one set of footprints.I don’t understand why when I needed you most you would leave me.”

這確實(shí)讓他費(fèi)解，于是問上帝：“上帝，你說過一旦我決定跟從你，你將陪伴我走過一生。可我發(fā)現(xiàn)在我一生中最煩惱的時(shí)候卻只有一排腳印，我不明白為何在我最需要你的時(shí)候你卻總是離開我?！?/p>

The God replied，“My child，I love you and I would never leave you. D.ring your times of trial3and suffering4，when you see only one set of footprints，it was then that I carried you.”

上帝答道：“我的孩子，我愛你，我永遠(yuǎn)也不會(huì)離開你。在你經(jīng)受磨難和痛苦時(shí)只看到一排腳印，那正是我背著你的時(shí)候?！?/p>
