A few years ago I was faced with challenges at home, at the school where I teach, and in many other areas. I felt as though I were hanging by a thread.
I often spent my hour-long commute to and from work praying for inspiration and healing. At other times I turned to the Bible and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy for support and guidance. But I still felt that “thread” was being stretched thin.
One morning as I got into my car to go to work, I noticed that a spider had spun a web between the side-view mirror and the car door. It didn’t seem to be a very good place for a web, since a large part of my commute is at higher speeds on the expressway.
