Hope-filled Sunday!Â
Happy Sunday! Here’s some encouragement for your week.
I remember learning in elementary school about metamorphosis and how the not-so-lovely caterpillars become beautiful butterflies. It’s hard to imagine that something so beautiful came from something so ordinary. The same transformation is true of my life, as well as yours.
As long as we’re here on earth, we’re a work in progress. God is molding us. He’s using every detail (yes, even our pain, failures, and successes) to transform us into the person He created us to be. The changes we undergo may not always be pleasant. We may want to fight against them. We have to be willing to change. Share on X With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can cast off our old self, including negative feelings, behaviors like anger, feelings of low self-worth, and so much more. The transformation isn’t immediate. But if we are open to the process, it allows God to “transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.”Â
Lord, help us to be open to releasing those negative feelings and behaviors so that You can transform our lives into things of beauty. Amen.
Have a blessed day. Gentle hugs to all of you. ?
