A Butterflies Transformation

It’s time to live a transformed life. The caterpillar is a fascinating creature. It starts out as a small, insignificant creature that crawls about, but overtime, it grows and becomes something amazing. This process of growth and transformation is a good example of our faith life. Just as the caterpillar has to go through a period of distress, discomfort and opposition.  We too must to go through things in order to grow and become stronger.  When the caterpillar is transformed on the inside of the cocoon, the process in hidden. Certainly our faith growth is hidden at times too. Until one day we realize, hey I don’t think like that anymore. Unquestionably, this faith walk is not an easy walk.

Faith demands opposition, it took opposition for the caterpillar to be transformed into a butterfly. So we must be strong in the Lord and in our faith, so when the opposition or distress comes we will be able to stand and stay in position until the transformation comes. Undeniably, if the caterpillar was released from the cocoon to early, it would not survive. Lastly, the process in the cocoon gave the butterfly it’s wings to be able to fly. Surprisingly, the very thing that we don’t like, sometimes is the very thing that God will use to cause us to fly. What situation is your is God using as a cocoon?
