Something wonderful happens inside of a cocoon. A bug turns into beauty. The "grubby", pun intended, turns into something gorgeous. I wonder what it feels like in there? The changing, growing, developing, and stretching must be a roller coaster of emotion. Yet, this is God's way: The wait, time, change.
What goes in will come out different. The caterpillar doesn't just one day say, "I'm a butterflyl now" or "I believe I'm a butterfly." There is a process of transformation.
God tells us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. The reason so many "converts" never really do more than believe, is the lack of transformation. You can't rush growth. Bad things spread fast, like cancer and forest fires. Let's get back to the business of investing in transformation. It is God's way: The wait, time, change.
