As we transform in our lives from Glory to Glory we have times of hiding and of pain. We feed ourselves on life, we wrap ourselves in fine white silken threads and we give ourselves over to the process that must take place. We hide, we wait, we trust. We trust that one day we will sense the timing of the Lord and push through our burial garments into the freshness of a new day. We will hang on to our cocoon only long enough to let our wings dry before releasing the things of the past and taking flight. I have purposed in my heart to allow myself to be hidden... swallowed up in a safe but confined realm of not seeing, not hearing... but trusting. I have purposed to emerge triumphant in my own right... using the gifts and techniques that God has predestined in my spiritual DNA using the support of the environment around me, but the tenacity to get myself out... so that I will not end my process beautiful albeit lame as a butterfly released by man unable to form the strength needed to survive the world beyond... I will pursue strength and push into the fullness of what God envisioned when he called my name... I will fly in wholeness and beauty and freedom.
