Communion with the Word

Change, while good, is not always an easy transition. Many of us want change but have a hard time making the necessary adjustments to make it possible.

Think about the caterpillar before its transition into a butterfly. It goes through a rigorous transformation called metamorphosis. During its larval stage it crawls on the ground to nourish on plant life until its pupa stage. When the larva is fully-grown, it stops feeding and begins drifting in quest for a suitable pupation site. Once it has reached its final destination, which is usually the underside of a leaf, it will begin a phase that appears to be the worst time of its life.

There is no doubt that we will at times will suffer under heavy setbacks. In the process, if your world has been turned upside down, and you feel like your life is hanging by a thread, remember that, God’s Word is powerful enough to keep you from falling. Let the Word of God be the only harness that holds you during your pupae stage, for God is always working out what you are growing through for your benefit.

Just like the pupa, your upside down stage of life is only for a season. But you must not interfere with the process, for if you do, you risk the possibility of delaying or aborting the expected end, to spread your wings and fly.

Change cannot occur without your cooperation. When your life is being broken down, it is an external forewarning that the old order is collapsing, breaking up, and waiting to be transformed into something new.

Allow your pupa stage to transform you into something you have never been.

Tilt your heart towards the SON!

This was right on time! I believe I am on the underside of a leaf :) Thank you. I am praying that I will not interfere with the process.

Thank you, Pastor Goodson!

This is so beautiful and I love the analogy. The 'birth' of creativity. Yes, we must commit to transforming and then allow God to usher us all towards building and shaping His Kingdom. I am volunteering to do my part and I pray to leave this world a little better for my grandchildren.

Be blessed,
Agnes
