A Butterfly’s Lesson
”One day, a small
opening appeared
in a cocoon; a
man sat and
watched for the
butterfly for
several hours as
it struggled to
force its body
through that little
hole.
Then, it seems to
stop making any
progress.

It appeared as if
it had gotten as
far as it could
and it could not
go any further.
So the man
decided to help
the butterfly: he
took a pair of
scissors and
opened the
cocoon.

The butterfly
then emerged
easily.

But it had a
withered body, it
was tiny and
shriveled wings.
The man
continued to
watch because
he expected
that, at any
moment, the
wings would
open, enlarge
and expand, to
be able to
support the
butterfly’s
body, and
become firm.
Neither
happened!
In fact, the
butterfly spent
the rest of its
life crawling
around with a
withered body
and shriveled
wings. It never
was able to fly.
What the man, in his
kindness and his goodwill
did not understand was
that the restricting cocoon
and the struggle required
for the butterfly to get
through the tiny opening,
were God’s way of
forcing fluid from the
body of the butterfly into
its wings, so that it would
be ready for flight once it
achieved its freedom from
the cocoon.
Sometimes,
struggles are
exactly what we
need in our life.

If God allowed us to
go through our life
without any
obstacles, it would
cripple us. We
would not be as
strong as we could
have been. Never
been able to fly.
I asked for Strength...
and God gave me
difficulties to make me
strong.

I asked for Wisdom...
and God gave me
problems to solve.

I asked for
prosperity...
and God gave me a
brain and brawn to
work.
I asked for
Courage…..
and God gave me
obstacles to
overcome.

I asked for
Love...
and God gave me
troubled people
to help.
I asked for Favors...
And God gave me
Opportunities.

“I received nothing I
wanted...
But I received
everything I
needed."
Live life without fear, confront all obstacles and know that you can overcome them.
Send this message to your friends and show them how much you care. Send it to anybody
that you consider a FRIEND, even if this means to send it to the same person that
conveyed it to you. If this message returns to you, you can be sure that your circle of
friendship is made out of true friends.
WHAT WILL YOU DO ABOUT THIS ?
  If you would like, send this message on….it is the
  way we touch each other with simple truths that
  spreads goodness in the world.

  If you do good, a Good thing may happen for you.
