The Caterpillar and the Butterfly

The Caterpillar and the Butterfly.

"Once I was walking in my garden and I observed a caterpillar.

She was beautiful in her own right, but she didn't know it.

She just slowly crawled around eating leaves.

However one day, she was no longer crawling around, but was in a deep sleep in a cocoon.

I wondered how scared she must have been, confined in small chamber, scared of what was to happen next.

I wondered if she missed her old life, if she endured patience.

A while later a miracle followed, she Emerged, with the most incredibly beautiful wings, and she flew in her new body as a butterfly.

She was now transformed into who she was always meant to be.

So when your life feels like it is confined, when you are going through pain, and transformation, when old patterns, people and things fall away, when you feel as though your patience has run out, then, Let Go! Let God take over and soon the person you were meant to be, living the life you were meant to be will happen, and you will flutter in love, light and happiness like a butterfly."
