Brenda was a young woman who was invited to go rock climbing. Although
she was scared to death, she went with her group to a tremendous granite
cliff. She put on the gear, took a hold on the rope,
and started up the face of that rock. Well, she got to a ledge where she
could take a breather.
As she was hanging on there, the safety rope snapped against Brenda's eye
and knocked out her contact lens. Well, here she is on a rock ledge,
with
hundreds of feet below her and hundreds of feet above her. Of course,
she
looked and looked and looked, hoping it had landed on the ledge, but it
just wasn't there. She prayed to the Lord to help her
to find it.
When she got to the top, she looked out across range after range of mountains,
thinking of that
Bible verse that says, "The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout
the
whole earth."
She thought, "Lord, You can see all these mountains. You know every
stone
and leaf, and You know exactly where my contact lens is. Please help
me."
Finally, they walked down the trail to the bottom. At the bottom there
was
a new party of climbers just starting up the face of the cliff. One of
them shouted out, "Hey, you guys! Anybody lose a contact
lens?"
Well, that would be startling enough, but you know why the climber saw it?
An ant was moving slowly across the face of the rock, carrying it, and saying
"Lord, I don't know why you want me to carry this. I can't eat it
and it's awfully heavy, but whatever you want me to carry, I will carry."
