It sounds more like he was trying to carry Malluas but dropped him down the stairs instead

i mean, near death experiences (1970 RV going 90 with 2 escaped murders from Folsom prison driving barely missing my friends car... 1 foot away on my side.) broken neck, seperated shoulder, dislocated stuff... until he looks out for me once... god is on my shitlist
yes you can say he saved me.. but god damnit looks alot like he is tryin to kill me
When a Man died, God showed him the road of his life. God said, see footprints next to yours, that was me walking alongside you, guiding you. Man said, what about parts where there is only one set of footprints. God said, this was most dificult times in your life. Man said, so God why did you abandon me in most dificult times, when i needed you most. God said, I did not abandon you, you only see one set of prints because during your most dificult times, I was carrying you.
That's a great story.

Yes, I've had "Footprints" on a plaque on my wall for about 20 years now. I was just commenting on how great of a story it was. I've never seen a copy of "Footprints" that didn't have "Jesus" in it. Ganzo's version says "God." The story is by "Author Unknown" but I think the "Jesus" version was the original.

I do not know the author, nor have i heard Jesus instead of God in it, but this is old toast in Russia.
While we on it, there is "Boat" story too:
During flood, religious zealot climbs on his roof. Water gets to the roof, boat comes, people shout get in. Guy says, God will save me. Water gets to his waist, another boat comes, people shout get in. Guy says, God will save me. Water gets to his neck, another boat comes, people shout get in. Guy says, God will save me. Guy drowns, goes to heaven, meets God. Guy asks: God, all my life i been following you to the letter, I devoted my life to you, and in time of need you didn't save me. God says: Fool, I've sent 3 boats for you.
