I watched a video where a woman bought these caterpillars, just for the purpose of watching them go through metamorphosis. She spent quite a few weeks watching these caterpillars go through all their stages. To help these little creatures along, she made sure to care for them and provide everything they would need to not just survive, but to grow and flourish. I was mesmerized watching these little caterpillars transform. Starting small, then they became bigger, then they went through different color variations, eventually developing a cocoon around themselves. Then, the color of their cocoon changed and shortly after, popped these big pretty moths. God is magnificent and detailed with His creation. Every little detail, He doesn’t miss a beat, each process with its own purpose. God is like this with us on our journey, though even more so. Not only did He create us, but He also tends to us, He cares for us, nurtures us. He always ensures that we have what we need to grow and to flourish. He watches over us, lovingly helping us to become what He created us to be. In life, we go through our own changes. It is so wonderful that we have God as our caretaker, helping us to spread our wings and fully be just as He designed.

The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”
