An incredible friend of mine gave me an image of me as a child running in a field among giant butterflies. And wow God is cool.
I became honored to be among the butterflies. The simplicity of their beauty. The symmetry of their wings. Their obedience to trust that after the cocoon there IS something greater.
They enter a new season of life with FULL TRUST. They don’t have an eye poking through. They don’t hold on to earthly desires and give them authority. To relational desires, to physical possessions They give all their authority to their cocoon, our God. And it’s as simple as that.
And their wings, woah. They’re so beautiful, but so simple. Symmetrical. We must align our words, our actions with His but in that there is incredible beauty.
In this field, there’s risk. And knowing all it takes is trust. I’m ready, I’m running with my arms wide open. A child finds such beauty and it’s all they see. It’s THAT simple.
His love is so simple, take the risk, give the authority to God and He will give you something so beautiful. Be patience for it doesn’t all come at once, but oh it’s worth it.
I see you God, I’m ready to run among the butterflies.
