These are the things I'm thinking of today (and Google-searching)...
I love the verse in 2 Corinthians 5:17 about being a new creation: Therefore if any is in Christ, he is a new creature, the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
And butterflies are such a lovely representation. They start out as caterpillars (wormy little things), and then transform into beauty. Kind of like us, eh? From inching along on the ground to flying free through the air. Ahhh.... flying free. Our souls get to experience flight in the peace and joy we receive from His Spirit within, still, at times, or often, we are abruptly grounded by our flesh. But one day, my friends, one sweet day, we will be free of our bodily cocoons and our wings will fully unfurl to carry us forever away from the distractions and weights of this world that hold us down. Mmmm...

Mmmmmm indeed. Thanks for the reminder, friend. A very good one since I got my behind kicked in a work out this morning. :) Love you much!
Thank you sweet Adrian for the reminder of the beauty we have to look forward to. Sometimes it's hard to see past the ugliness that we deal with here. Love to you
