Last month this beautiful winged creature came into my life.
She had a very clear message along with an appearance that made it impossible for me not to take notice. She was a glorious reminder of the power of transformation and a magnificent example of the magic that occurs in stillness.
Then she flew away and left me with the following prayer:
“Dear God, Creator of all life, please let me learn the lessons of life, shown to me by this butterfly. Allow me to fully understand that I too am meant for transformation.
Teach me to enter the stillness of my heart, and allow myself to both transform and be transformed. Teach me to be aware of my thoughts, and to turn everything in my mind and heart into its most beautiful and positive form.
In the words of St. Francis of Assisi,
“Make me a channel of your peace!”
