In the Center of God’s Will

This quote, from Perfect Trust by Charles Swindoll, speaks to our protection and care by God when are in His will.

“Many, many years ago, Felix of Nola was escaping his enemies, and he, too, took temporary refuge in a cave.  He had scarcely entered the opening of the cave before a spider began to weave its web across the small opening.  With remarkable speed, the insect completely sealed off the mouth of the cave with an intricate web, giving the appearance that the cave had not been entered for many weeks.  As Felix’s pursuers passed by, they saw the web and didn’t even bother to look inside.  Later as the godly fugitive stepped out into the sunlight, he uttered these insightful words: ‘Where God is, a spider’s web is a wall; where He is not, a wall is but a spider’s web.‘”
