A True story:
Brenda was almost halfway to the top of the tremendous granite cliff. She
was standing on a ledge where she was taking a breather during this, her
first rock climb. As she rested there, the safety rope snapped against her
eye and knocked out her contact lens .. "Great", she thought. "Here I am on a
rock ledge, hundreds of feet from the bottom and hundreds of feet to the top
of this cliff, and now my sight is blurry."
She looked and looked, hoping that somehow it had landed on the ledge. But
it just wasn't there.
She felt the panic rising in her, so she began praying. She prayed for calm,
and she prayed that she may find her contact lens.
When she got to the top, a friend examined her eye and her clothing for the
lens, but it was not to be found. Although she was calm now that she was at
the top, she was saddened because she could not clearly see across the range
of mountains. She thought of the bible verse "The eyes of the Lord run to
and fro throughout the whole earth."
