The caterpillar knows something is different,
because it no longer feels like a caterpillar and it no longer looks like a caterpillar, as its legs are no longer.
Crawling is no longer an option because now it is dressed with wings.
Wings to fly. Wings that were never used before, but that is all that it has now.
FLAP. FLAP. FLAP.
They work. But now what?
TAKE FLIGHT~
"So if the SON makes you FREE, then you are UNQUESTIONABLY FREE" (John 8:36).
But is FLYING for you? You look behind,
and see that the cocoon that was built around you when you were a caterpillar,
is no longer there. What option do you have?
To stay still, frozen in the PAST, or to
FLAP FLAP FLAP
using your NEW wings to do what they were created to do~
to leave the PAST behind because the PAST is gone and the NEW is here~
"Therefore, if anyone is IN CHRIST [that is, grafted in, joined to HIM by faith in HIM as SAVIOR], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the HOLY SPIRIT];
the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away.Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life]"
(2 Corinthians 5:17).
FLAP. FLAP. FLAP.
It feels so unfamiliar, but it should because you weren't free before.
But to feel freedom is to Experience Freedom~
to go where you were never have been, because you are no longer who you used to be, because now you are who HE created you to be~
"I have been crucified with CHRIST [that is, in HIM I have shared HIS crucifixion];
it is no longer I who live, but CHRIST lives in me"*
So what are you going to do?
FLY FREE~
"The life I now live in the body I live by FAITH [by adhering to, relying on, and completely trusting] in the SON of GOD, who loved me and gave HIMSELF up for me" *(Galatians 2:20).
FLAP. FLAP. FLAP.
"Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead. I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which GOD has called me heavenward in CHRIST JESUS" (Philippians 3:13-14).
FLYING FOREVER FREE~
" I can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13).
FLAP. FLAP. FLAP.
Because you were
CREATED

"SOAR"
