I choose freedom, and I soar!

When a butterfly leaves its chrysalis, it abandons its former way of life. The transition takes time as the newly formed butterfly waits for its wings to dry. Once ready, it takes flight, leaving old ways behind as it soars freely.

Like the butterfly, I may find that my freedom from a former way of life takes time. I cocoon myself in prayer and meditation. I consciously let go of old thoughts, ideas, and habits that keep me from the full expression of who I am.

I let go of the past and live in the present. I am no longer held back by fear of failure or defeat. Through the power and presence of God within, I am free to soar through the garden of life.
For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters.—Galatians 5:13

So many times we limit ourselves by our narrow mind and our unwillingness to be open to new things. My God speaks through people, places and things. I listen for the message instead of turning out the messenger.

The first promise says, "We will know a new freedom and a new happiness." What more can we ask for?
