Why “Footprints Diary”?

Footprints is a very special poem to me, as it is during the most difficult times of my life that I have felt Jesus’ presence the most. He literally picks me up and carries me through the tough times, and it is only through my faith and trust in Him that He carries me and shelters me from life’s storms. He is literally the wind beneath my wings, and I feel honoured that He considers me worthy of carrying me. This version of Footprints in the Sand, written by Margaret Fishback Powers is my favourite version – there are others, but this one just speaks to my ♥, as the flowing words are very similar to the King James Version of the Bible .

My blog, Footprints Diary is the place where I chronicle my thoughts and my life for God, always relying on Him for my all. My previous blog, Homeschooling4Christ was where I used to write, but I realised that I am more than a homeschooling Mum, although it is one of the hats that I wear, it isn’t my whole life. My life is one lived for God – through the good times and the bad, and the Footprints poem describes me and who I am in God. It is in Him that I have my sufficiency and my being, and it is Him that I live for.

Our God never lets us down – He is always there for us, as long as we take the time to rely wholly and solely on Him, and He promises that He will never give us more than we can handle, and that He will never leave us nor forsake us.

Our God truly is an awesome God!
