Legends of the Traveler

>>> > > A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a
>>> > > small opening appeared. He sat and watched
>>> > > the butterfly for several hours as it struggled
>>> > > to force its body through that little hole.
>>> > >
>>> > > Then it seemed to stop making any progress.
>>> > > It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could,
>>> > > and it could go no further.
>>> > >
>>> > > So the man decided to help the butterfly.
>>> > > He took a pair of scissors and snipped off
>>> > > the remaining bit of the cocoon.
>>> > >
>>> > > The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had
>>> > > a swollen body and small, shrivelled wings.
>>> > >
>>> > > The man continued to watch the butterfly because
>>> > > he expected that, at any moment, the wings would
>>> > > enlarge and expand to be able to support the
>>> > > body, which would contract in time.
>>> > >
>>> > > Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the
>>> > > rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body
>>> > > and shrivelled wings. It never was able to fly.
>>> > >
>>> > > What the man, in his kindness and haste, 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 lives. If God allowed us to go through
>>> > > our lives without any obstacles, it would cripple us.
>>> > >
>>> > > We would not be as strong as what we could have been.
>>> > > We could never fly!
>>> > >
>>> > > we asked for Strength.........
>>> > > And God gave us Difficulties to make me strong.
