- [Narrator] Third gradeteacher Tracy Lambert
always enjoyed living on the Florida coast
with her husband Chris and their two sons.
Then one day.
- It was about 2018, I noticed that my eye
was just starting to water.
My husband and I were out for a walk
and I was like why is my eye watering?
- I didn't think awhole lot of it at first
'cause people's eyes dowater from time to time.
- [Narrator] At first, Tracy chalked it up
to seasonal allergies,
then more seasons came and went.
- My eye would be wateringall throughout the year.
It didn't matter if it washigh pollen, low pollen.
I tried changing my makeup,
I tried wearing no mascara
and I was troubleshooting
and nothing seemed to really stop it.
- [Narrator] In fact, over thenext 18 months, it got worse.
- The more I wiped, then themore it would kind of get sore
on the corners.
My third graders would say,
"What happened, Mrs. Lambert?
Why are you crying?"
I would tell them it waslike, "I'm not crying,
my eye's just watering."
- I'm a fixer, I try to solve problems.
That's what I do.
And this was one of those things
that I just couldn't do anything about.
- It was just annoying.
- [Narrator] Even Tracy's eye doctor
couldn't find anything wrong.
The only thing he coulddo was give her eye drops.
- So I put the drops in
and it made no difference.
I just chalked it up asthis is just what it is.
- [Narrator] In September 2020,
the family moved toVirginia Beach, Virginia
when Chris took a job at Regent University
as vice president of advancement.
Still, Tracy's symptoms remained.
In all that time,
she admits she never took it to God.
- I felt like that it wassuch an insignificant thing
I was like God's got biggerthings to worry about
other than Tracy's little eye watering.
So no, I never went directly in prayer
to say God, please heal my eye.
I never did that.
- [Narrator] Then in March 2021,
while watching The 700 Club,
Tracy joined Pat and Wendy in prayer
as they began giving words of knowledge.
- There's someone with a,
your right eye is just really weepy.
It's like you're just crying none stop
and you're not sad,
you're just having these tears come down.
But the Lord's healingyour eyes right now.
So don't worry, God is touching you.
Right eye, be healed nowin the name of Jesus.
- Oh my, that was actually for me.
I was excited
and I said I'm gonna claim this for me.
I reached up and Itouched the side of my eye
and I said, "God, I think this is for me."
So I held my hand there
and then I felt it was kind of warm
and I had just complained that morning
about my eye bothering me
and tearing up to my husband,
and then here it is like 9:30 that day
and then it literally just dried up.
- I got that phone call that day
that said, "Chris, you'll neverbelieve what just happened."
Then she told me that story
and then it really kindof crystallized for us
the depth and the breadthof God's caring for us.
I am just ecstatic that she's healed.
- [Narrator] Both Tracy and Chris say
they learned something that day.
- At the end of the day,
God is listening and hewants to be there with us.
- It still just gives mechills just thinking about it.
I got an miracle.
As tiny and asinsignificant as that may be
to anybody or even to myself,
but I had my own little miracle
and God cares about everything,
even my watery eye.
