A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.One day,a small opening appeared,he stood and watched the cocoon for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.But 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 it.He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.The butterfly then emerged easily.But the butterfly only can crawl around with a swollen body and shriveled wings,it was never able to fly,because it had a swollen body and small,shriveled wings.

What the man didn`t 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 freedom from the cocoon.
