Protected by a Web

Preparing for my Junior Sunday School lesson, I read the following article printed in the Holiness Heritage.

A believer was fleeing from his enemies during a persecution in North Africa. Pursued over a hill and through a valley with no place to hide, he fell exhausted into a cave, expecting to be caught.

Awaiting his death, he saw a spider weaving a web. Within minutes, the spider had woven a beautiful web across the mouth of the cave.

The man's pursuers arrived, but on seeing the unbroken web assumed it impossible for him to have entered the cave.

Later that believer exclaimed,


"Where God is, a spider's web is like a wall.
Where God is not, a wall is like a spider's web."
