A NEW DAY, A NEW LIFE


Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:  old things are passed away,  behold, all things are become new.

2nd Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)







I love butterflies!  Not only are they beautiful but they teach us a lesson, if we just meditate on God's word.  He tells us that by receiving His son into our hearts and lives, we become new creatures.  Like the butterfly we are transformed into new life.

I found this butterfly on my lattice yesterday and it reminded me of God's love for me.  Like the butterfly I am transformed and renewed each day.

HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

OH yes, I love butterflies as well...especially because of this message that they portray when they emerge from their cocoons transformed into such a lovely new creature! I love how God gives us these pictures of His transforming power through His creation all around us, if we'd just take the time to notice! Thank you for helping us do just that today!
Happy Sunday!

Beautiful, Syl- just lovely and such a GREAT message.

We are forgiven, and made new.

What a reassuring belief.

Have a wonderful week.

Isn't it fun to have reminders of life's lessons just fly into our lives? Lovely photos and message!

Hi Sylvia,

What a beautiful message and butterfly! I think we all could spread our wings a little more and be kinder to each other.
