This is the time of year that we see beautiful butterflies fluttering from place to place. They are so delicate, so beautiful. I enjoy watching them and as I do, I am reminded of the change that has taken place in their lives and ours. They are evidence that beauty comes out of struggle and suffering. They emerge from their cocoon and we get this......
Justin came in with this photo and I just loved it.....wanted to post it so you could all enjoy the beauty of these little creatures. When I see them...I am reminded of my life in Christ. Old things have passed away and behold, all things are become new. Not different, not better, not just changed but completely new. Amazing evidence of God's grace. He could have kept us in that cocoon so to speak but instead, through Jesus, He chose to set us free and make all things new.
This picture is AMAZING!!! Absolutely love it.
ReplyDeleteI knew you would, Lisa!!! I think I am going to get this one on a canvas print. I am trying to get creative about the photos we have and ways to display them.
DeleteOh, oh, oh...you really should!!! It would be stunning. I use www.easycanvasprints.com and they occasionally have really good deals that make it quite affordable.
DeleteI also forgot to mention the first time I much I love the comparison you drew between the butterfly and our new life in Him!!
