The calling of the butterfly.

Elegant flying flowers dancing on the breezes off the lake of blue.

Fragile yet powerful, the winds of the sky could not stop you.

The power of the lion is not your calling, yet you live fearlessly.

The strength of an eagle is not your calling, yet you live powerfully.

You see a creature does not have to be ferocious or terrifying to have a purpose on earth.

While power and strength can move mountains, so can mercy, grace, faith, beauty, hope, peace, joy, and love. Like the powerful creatures, the butterfly uses its gifts to lift its wings and bring God glory and praise.

Beautiful child of God, dancing in the breezes from the lake of blue. 

Fragile yet powerful, the winds of the storm can not stop you.

The power of the lion may not be your calling, yet you can live fearlessly.

The strength of the eagle may not be your calling, yet you can live powerfully.

You were created to know and believe God and bring Him glory whether by strength or beauty.

Use your gifts to move mountains and to lift your wings to bring God glory and praise.

Live your gifts. Live your calling. Live what you were created to be.

The calling of the butterfly.
