The Butterfly

I know that I have been away from my blog for several months. Like the butterfly in the poem below, I have been going through some struggles. They are indeed a part of life. May each of you see many blessings in this New Year
as you stand in awe at God's power and His loving grace.


The Butterfly
O butterfly, O butterfly, how beautiful you are.
Your colorful wings allow you to soar very far.

It is such a struggle to become a butterfly,

Our Lord is equipping you as He watches you with His eye.

When we look back and know the changes that took place,

we will stand in awe at God’s power and His loving grace.


Whatever struggle you may be facing, keep the image of a beautiful butterfly before you.
