Do You Believe?
Who would have known that transformation could be such a lengthy, complex process? We are edging closer to completion this week. Last week was simply the moment in our transformation where we decided. We made the choice to be alone, to isolate. Isolating happens once we realize that what we are about to do, those around us could not comprehend. In fact we can’t even comprehend it, but there is a knowing inside of our spirit called purpose, it is the whole reason that you were created. Purpose calls us in the direction of incredible change. Having trust in that purpose requires one to insulate, and wrap ourselves in a chrysalis. I like to think of it as wrapping myself in God’s Promise. We have arrived at stage five.
Self Discovery and Belief, the phase where we dig deep and find out who we really are and what we truly believe, without the influence of others, or the Matrix. We gain confidence and belief in ourselves.
You will begin to grow even closer to God at this point in development. Who is your God? Is He all powerful? Is He faithful? Can you trust Him to do what he said he would? Do you believe that you were destined to be a butterfly? A decision has to be made in who and what you are believing in, because it is the only way that you are going to make it through.
An unbelievable amount of faith is necessary in stage five. God has spoken to your spirit, and showed it the finished product, the Butterfly, when you emerged from that egg. The thing God didn’t reveal was the immense pain that transpires as you transform. You will experience losses of all kinds, including loss of all control, nothing is as it once was, your life is falling to pieces, and changing at every turn. Your life turns to soup. Fear and doubt will creep in, but you must keep trusting and believing.
Everything that you once were will be useful to you in this transformation. In the same way the mush of the caterpillar will be used to form the wings, antennae, legs, eyes, and all the other features of a butterfly.
Test, trials, and tribulations transpire. God brings you through each trial different, anew, more refined. You have to completely trust what God has shown you will come to fruition even though you cannot see it. There will be moments where you feel you aren’t going to make it, but you have committed to it now. There is no turning back from here, His will, will be done. You witness over and over again that if it weren’t for supernatural support, you wouldn’t make be able to make it through. Your faith builds as you heal, and the picture of who you are becomes a little more clear. As the vision comes together you can settle in the knowing that God is right there with you the whole way through. You are almost to the finish line. Don’t give up just yet.
Faith is the key. God is the answer.
