This scene reminds me of the poem "Footprints in the Sand" a little bit. The poet writes about walking along the beach with Jesus. He sees two sets of footprints in the sand as they go through life together, but when the times are really hard, there is only one set of footprints. Confused, and thinking that he is left alone during the hard times, he questions Jesus about the one set of footprints. Jesus replies that when there was just one set of footprints, Jesus was carrying the poet.
Sometimes, we think that we have to walk alone through the difficult days, the days when our heart feels like breaking, when we don't know how we will make it. Jesus is right there beside us, ready and willing to carry us. All we have to do is put our hand in his and he will take care of us.
