Break Out!

Below is a picture of a moth cocoon that got me to thinking about how God uses struggles in our lives to strengthen us and to make us stronger. We press on through our challenges and we have the opportunity to emerge better equipped to thrive and overcome life's battles.

This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now we could help it-take a knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free-but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it.
