Can you tell me who wrote this poem although there are differnt versions of it?

in deepest sleep one night i dreamed
that on the beach i walked
God was by my side each step
and quietly we talked.
then on the sky my life was flashed;
the vivions all serene.
two sets of footprints in the sand
were there in every scene.
but then i noticed in some scenes
of suffering, pain, and strife...
just a single set of footprints
at the worst times of my life.
"God...you said you'd stay by me
in good times and in bad...
why then did you leave me
each time my life was sad?"
"My precious child," God answered
"when your life had pain, i knew;
the single set of footprints
were the times I carried you"

(I love this poem!)

If people who are not Jehovah's witnesses realize that something ain't right and that the "END IS NEAR" as quoted on CNN. Then why is it that people who are ex JW's and KNOW the truth get on here and make comments like "the society has been saying deliverance at hand for years. Yeah,... but never before has the rest of the world been talking about it as much as they have been. If you say they have then your just in denial, and Satan has a firm grip on your heart. People!! Armmegedon is close very close. It is not too late to get right and back on track. For years it was always beleived that if your'e an apostate that their's no hope.But thats not so Jehovah knows that we are all imperfect and welcomes all back w/ open arms exp..prodical son.So please stop being a tool of satan and get yourself right with Jehovah. Before you are the ones weeping and knashing your teeth. Just imagine the fear and despair you'll have when you know it's too late. But for now it's not, so DO something NOW!

Today, its a little tougher to claim to be a "prophet" and get a massive flock of sheep to follow you mindlessly, although it still happens. But back in the day, it was easy as pie. Every fool facing death daily with constant war, disease and super short life spans was trying to cope with their fear of death and religion was the best drug availble.

Todays snake-oil salesmen can only rob us of a few bucks, but back then, they were called "prophets" and when they took advantage of peoples fears to hoist themselves into power or turn a quick buck, the implications were much bigger...and dog gonnitt...we are still living with it today!

Imagine your God and you want to communicate your intentions to people...now...isnt the last meduim you would use...another human being!!!

I would zap my code into their head or program it into their genes. I would not leave it for another human to convey because this would embolden a billion other frauds claiming to be a prophet.

I like to be funny--If i had my way, it would be my middle name. I like to ask questions here because it's funny to read people's reactions to your questions. But if I am askiung an obviously stipid question like "hey, does Jesus wear nike?", should people take offense or just laugh or should they pick at your avatar just because you have style and know your colors?

I just took a personality test. According to the results, I am hedonistic, vain, self absorbed, dislike authority, plus a lot more unlikable characteristics about me. How can I become a better person?

..who has lived a good life cannot go to heaven unless he accepts Jesus? I understand about the whole true repentance thing, but surely it isnt fair? I'm sure i could have asked that question better, but i genuinely would like a serious answer to this.

WE are to occupy till the Lord snatches us away like the bible and the Petra song says, then you can have it....at least for the next seven years, till our Lord returns for the third coming and throws you into the eternal deep fry, praise the holy name of Jesus! Remember, God IS love, but it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Angry God! Turn or burn, get right or get left. It's your choice, but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord! If you feel convicted right now, just ask on yahoo how to be saved and one of my many brethren will be glad to lead you to the Lord and Salvation.

If someone was to get high everyday and partake in overindulgance which one of the seven deadly sins, would they go to hell? John Lennon was high out of his mind most of the time, including right before he get shot in his apartment complex in NYC. Could someone this nice, respectful and relaxed go to hell?

If every man in America just turned the tap on and off when shaving we could save atleast 3 gallons per person. Multiply that with say 40 million shavers. That is 120 million gallons of drinking water down the drain everyday. What do you guys think?

Just because we don't read the bible or attend church does not mean we do not have an understanding of Christian faiths, it just means that we chose to live our lives differently, but not necessarily much different to Christians, or in an "evil" way.

Who has it worse in society? Lesbians or gay men? Gay men have been praised in the media lately, yet with that stereotype of being the "fabulous" best friend to gals and not taken seriously. Lesbians haven't had much "bashing" before, but they are seen as as a sexy fantasy, thus making straight men think that they have a chance to "convert" them and many times not taken seriously either. So the question is: Who has it harder?

(Btw, to avoid criticism, I've barely come to terms with me being a lesbian.)

(just curious) : Christians knows if things are immorally wrong or right by reading their bible. For the Moslems their source is the Quran. The Buddhist has their own book too. For the atheist, i wonder what are the basis to tell if something is immoral or not, right or wrong?

Do atheist depends on what constitusion says on what is illegal or not illegal? like if it is not illegal then its not wrong right?
(just curious---no offense)

Atheists--any comments???

If God loves the sinner(who remained a sinner and died with sins) why will he let him suffer in hell for eternity? What is the sign of his love for a person whom you consider to be an ultimate sinner(who died without being a Christian) after that person's death?

i am so tired of people knocking born-again Christians. one day, though, it will be worth it—for our work is not in vain! Christ said they would treat us bad!
to all those people who laugh at every word that born-again Christians say, I have a challenge. we the born-again Christians love to see you laugh. that just makes us born-again Christians more intelligent.

so, to all those who laugh at every word we say, I challenge you all. the God of the born-again believers wrote the Bible. the Bible has 773,692 words in it. I want all the nonbelievers to laugh 773,692 times consecutively. why do I want you all to do this? simple. you laugh at every word we say, so laugh at every word our God says. in the end though, when the world is destroyed, God will be the one to laugh that final laugh, He will laugh at Satan and all of his lost followers. so, where would you like to spend eternity? the "non-smoking" room or the "smoking" room? choose quick, not long remains on the clock!

My aunt sent me out a letter that has confidential stuff in it, she sent it regular mail. She sent it last friday and today is thursday so it is almost a week later and I still have not recieved it & she had said they did not return it to her . I live in an apartment complex and she said she MAY have put the wrong apartment number on the enevelope so if thats the case would the USPS return the letter to my aunts address or would the USPS keep the letter at their facility awaiting pick-up? Also if she didnt put the wrong apartment number why the heck is it taking sooo long??? Is the USPS known for loosing letters??? and how do I go about tracking down this letter....??
