I like pretty things. Sometimes I stop and think about the beauty of a butterfly, but it is not often that I ponder just how much is happening inside the cocoon for the butterfly to become what it was born to be. Everything about the caterpillar must change inside the Chrysalis before it emerges as a brand new creature. It becomes completely brand new and everything about it changes.
EVERYTHING
During the time of isolation is when the wings are developing and the butterfly prepares to come forth. Nature is an amazing thing and it is something we can't change or alter. A butterfly will become a butterfly in its correct time and season and nothing can stop it, but it most go through a process before those wings and every vibrant color and intricate details of its wings are developed and it is strong enough to fly.
Once the caterpillar emerges as a gorgeous butterfly, you will not see it chillen with caterpillars.
Why?
It goes against the law of nature to go backwards. Always move forward and surround yourself with what speaks to your future and not your past. Just like the butterfly, you will not go backwards, you will spread your wings.
Butterflies are not hanging out with caterpillars because they are too busy enjoying their new wings and soaring to new heights.
"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold the new has come" 2 Corinthians 5:17
Take your new wings and FLY.
