Patiently Faithful

In faith, there are no wrongs.

In faith, everything is right.

In faith, even wrong is right.

During a war, a soldier was separated from his unit. The fighting wasintense, and in the smoke and crossfire he had lost touch with his comrades. Alone in the jungle, he could hear enemy soldiers coming in his direction. Scrambling for cover, he found his way up a hugh ridge to several small caves. Although safe for the moment, he realised that once the enemy soldiers looking for him swept up the ridge, they would quickly search all the caves and he would be killed.

As he waited he prayed, "Lord, if it be yourwill, please protect me. Whatever your will though, I love you and trust you. Amen."

After praying, he lay quietly listening to the enemy begin to draw close. He thought, "Well, I guess the Lord isn't going to help me out of this one." Then he saw a spider begin to build a web over the front of his cave. As he watched, listening to the enemy searching for him all the while, the spider layered strand after strand of web across the opening of the cave. "Hah," he thought. "What I need is a brick wall and what the Lord has sent me is a spider web. God does have a sense of humour!"

As the enemy rew closer heb watched from the darkness of his hideout and could see them searching one cave after another. As they came to his, he got ready to make his last stand. To his amazement, however, after glancing in the direction of his cave, they moved one.

Suddenly, he realised that with the spider web over the entrance, his cave looked as if no one had entered for quite a while.

"Lord, forgive me," prayed the young man."I had forgotten in you a spider's web is stronger than a brick wall."

Whenever you do anything and it doesn't turn out the way you want it to, immediatly.,
