Footprints In The Sand is One of My Favorite Poems

God carries us when we are troubled - it's a message with universal appeal. I think that is what I really love about these footprints posters. Whether you are Jewish or Christian, or any other religion with a god, this is a message you want to hear, and it's sentiment was displayed so perfectly in the famous poem "Footprints in the Sand" written by Mary Stevenson in 1936.

There have been several others who have claimed to be the author throughout the years. Regardless of who wrote it, with the ocean as a backdrop, footprints posters are both stunning and tranquil. Here you will find a collection of my favorites, along with the full text of "Footprints in the Sand" below and jewelery which highlights the most famous (and final) lines of the poem, "The times when you have seen only one set of footprints in the sand, is when I carried you.".

Whether you have come here in search of footprints posters for you home or as a gift, or just to look, take a moment of reflection in your day, sit quietly and enjoy this collection. I hope you like my selections.

Footprints in the Sand - The Poem

by Mary Stevenson

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from
anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.

So I said to the Lord,
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most, you have not been there for me?"

The Lord replied,
"The times when you have seen only one set of footprints in the sand,
is when I carried you."

Stainless Steel/Sterling Tutone "Footprints in the Sand" Ring

Includes free shipping

Golden footprints are etched around this classic ring inscribed inside with an excerpt of the famous "Footprints in the Sand" poem.

Listen to what other Amazon customers say about these rings:
This ring is substantial. It is well designed and comfortable to wear. I bought it to represent my survival as the target of a stalker for 5 and one half years. The engraving on the inside is very legible and the footprints are well done. The picture is a good representation of the product.

A Beautiful ring, much more that expected. I wish that every time I order online the result would be this great. Highly recommended. They sent a catalog and I will be using it soon.

    Hi Rhonda,

    Thanks for a neat lens! :O)

    My best friend in New York's a total nut for this poem! Hahaha! :D

    If her computer were working, I'd send her here, pronto. Eventually. *sigh*

    If you ever run into the Blue Mountain greeting cards inspirational verse anthology I BELIEVE IN YOU look me up on page 16 "I Believe In You And Your Success."

    Sunshine & Blessings,

    I love this, the poem holds so many memories for me, when I moved into my own flat, my dad gave me a copy of this, it has followed me everywhere, coffee stains, paint marks, it is now framed but I cannot bear to part with it, maybe its time these are beautiful! Blessed by a SquidAngel
