Who Makes the Best Butterflies?

Hello, Everyone! Aren't butterflies beautiful! I think so. I suppose butterflies can be thought of as a symbol of how something or someone can achieve higher levels of functionality and their own beauty optimized, naturally/Supernaturally with our Creator's help.

Isn't our Creator such an extraordinary and brainy artist? Just think of all the awesome/awe-inspiring creatures, places/locations and things He's designed and created! I'm a fan of His works and I am looking forward to seeing more of it all in person.

He Said, "Peace. Be Still."

Good Day, Everyone! Globally, the Earth has been experiencing stormy weather. As a Bible reader, I've read several of the stories about storms. One of the most memorable ones to me tells of how Jesus Christ actually spoke to the storm and the stormy weather obeyed His command and calmed down! That is astounding, isn't it. Here's a link to that amazing story:

³⁸And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
 ³⁹And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
 ⁴⁰And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith? (Mark 4:38-40, King James Version).

This image, courtesy of Thy Word Forever, reminds me of that great story. It's my prayer that blessings manifest everywhere they are needed, in the places and people affected by the storms.  And, I am doing and will do what good I can to be a part of those blessings.  In  one way or another each of us can be a blessing to someone, somewhere.
