Footprints is one of my favorites. I printed and have it posted at my desk, since the first day of my quit. It reminds me that no matter what, I am never alone. Between God and my friends here, I am always protected.

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
He was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed
scenes from His life. For each scene He noticed two sets of footprints
in the sand. One belonging to Him and the other to the LORD.
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 of His life.
This really bothered Him and He questioned the LORD about it. LORD 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 troublesome times in my life
there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I
needed you most you would leave me.
The LORD replied, my precious,
precious child, I Love you and I would never leave you! During your
times of trial and suffering when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you.

Ok, so now I am working on my checkbook and this song comes on...tell me there isn't a force much greater than us at work here. So...again, I need to post the lyrics for you my good friends....
When your day is long
And the night
The night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough of this life
Well hang on
Don't let yourself go
Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
(When your day is night alone)
Hold on, hold on
(If you feel like letting go)
Hold on
If you think you've had too much of this life
Well hang on
Cause everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
When you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own
In this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much
Of this life
To hang on
Well, everybody hurts
Sometimes, everybody cries
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
And everybody hurts
Sometimes
So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
(Everybody hurts
You are not alone)
