Footprints in the Sand
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."
I truly hope the shooter will be caught and prosecuted. Ernesto was loved by many. His children will miss him dearly. He did not deserve to die like this. Please contact homocide detective if you can help with this case, please. RIP Ernie.
I did not personally know Ernest (Ernie), but I did know Byron and it is unfortunate that this had to happen to them. I just read Ernie had children and my heart and prayers go out to them and his entire family. I'm sorry for your loss and cant begin to imagine how you must feel. Know that he's in Heaven now and he is looking down on you as your Guardian Angel. God Bless.
It's been a month in a half since you've been gone and it seem like forever, I miss you so much that I'm breaking down inside. I try not to think about you being gone but of the funny memories you left with me. I wish life would have been different for you .I'm so sorry you lived a hard life but I can surly say you always wore your life with a big smile. I promise you & your kids that they will be taken care of and loved the way you would of loved them I'm sorry your going to miss them grow up.I love you My superman. You where my Lil brother but you were my big brother.If we only had more time I would of told you that I loved you more often. Hugs & Kisses Always..Love Salina
I still can't believe your gone. It's been six months since I lost My True Love & My Friend. Life just seems so lonely without you. Oh how I miss your warm hugs and kisses.
I'm so thankful we got to spend your last days with each other it was hard for us but we found away to do so. My heart aches when I think about what you told me that night (I'm done I anit going back) I wish I'd never let you go that night,if only there was away for me to change that night. I know how tired you where of the BS. I miss us laughing & joking on each other. Your Birthday is tomorrow and it will be a sad one this time around remember last year LoL We had a hell of a time. I'll always love my shorty ,Love your L.A. Women
