The Flower and the Butterfly

Once there was a man who asked God for a flower and a butterfly. But instead God have him a cactus and a caterpillar.

The man was sad, he didn't understand why his request was mistaken. Then he thought, "Oh well, God has to many people to care for..."

And he decided not to question.

After some time, the man went to check up on his request that he had left forgotten.

To his surprise from the thorny ugly cactus...



And the unsightly caterpillar had been transformed...



God does everything right!

His way is ALWAYS the best way,
even to us it seems all wrong.

If you asked God for one thing and received another,
TRUST that He will give you what you need at the appropriate time.

What you want is not always what you need!
God never fails to grant our petitions,
so keep on going for Him
without doubting or murmuring.

Today's THORN...

Is tomorrow's FLOWER!
