Lesson 9
Loving God
Living with God
Describe God in one word.
Various world religions
call God by different
names give an example.
It would be of no use for
believers to have faith in God
unless this faith is inspired by
charity and accompanied by
goods works.
This charity as a gift of God enables
the person to love God above all
things. Our capacity to love God is
just a response to His love for us
because He loved us first.

life is not

Footprints in the Sand
• One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
• After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
• This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.

But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of
my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave
me."
• He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testing's.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."
