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

One night aman 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，有個人做了一個夢，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??；一排是他的，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 thatmany 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，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印；他同時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候。

This really bothered him and he asked the God,“God,you said thatonce Idecided to follow you,you’d walk withme all the way.But Ihave noticed that during themost troublesome2times ofmy life,there is only one set of footprints.I don’t understand why when I needed you most you would leaveme.”

這確實讓他費解，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候卻只有一排腳印，我不明白為何在我最需要你的時候你卻總是離開我。”

The God replied,“My child,I love you and Iwould never leave you.During your times of trial3and suffering4,when you see only one set of footprints,itwas then that Icarried you.”

上帝答道：“我的孩子，我愛你，我永遠(yuǎn)也不會離開你。在你經(jīng)受磨難和痛苦時只看到一排腳印，那正是我背著你的時候。”
