Break Forth

In decorating my tree, I came across a butterfly ornament my friend, Karen, gave me last year. She had attached the following legend to it with a ribbon. I decided to display the butterfly with a familiar Christmas blessing. I hope you enjoy it.

Legend of the Butterfly

Old

Legend

Has it that

The butterfly is a

Symbol of resurrection to

Eternal life. The beautiful creature

Emerging from the cocoon represents the

Resurrection of Christ from the tomb. Just

As the butterfly bursts forth with a new body,

Those who trust in Christ come forth to new

life. The butterfly represents Flight, Freedom

And

Creative

Thinking.

Break forth, fly and create, my friends.

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
Rev. 21:5 KJV
