Motherhood: The Metamorphosis

I invite you to consider with me the idea of spiritual growth from the perspective of one of the most extraordinary cycles of all, the cycle of the Monarch Butterfl y. This metamorphosis may be applied metaphorically to women, transitioning through the various stages of motherhood. This comparison may be used also to demonstrate how God transforms His people through their acceptance and application of the life, death, and resurrection of His onlybegotten Son, Jesus Christ.
