METAMORPHOSIS

When I was in school one of the subjects that would get most of my attention and stirred up a curiosity in me was BIOLOGY.

Up to this day I remember the lesson of MERTAMOPHOSIS (it’s a big word I know)

MERTAMOPHOSIS is defined as:

 1. A transformation

 2. A marked change in appearance, character, condition, or function.

 a complete change of form, structure, or substance, as transformation by magic.

3. any COMPLETE change in appearance, character, circumstances, etc.

 

 Its funny how when you read the definition the biggest word that stands out for me is CHANGE. But the change does not happen by ‘magic’ as is mentioned in the dictionary definition, we who believe in God know that He is the One who can create a HUMAN MERTAMOPHOSIS – the inner transformation, this change no scientist can explain it.

The butterflies true beauty is revealed when it breaks free from its shell, even in that there is a struggle, but if you notice very clearly the butterfly has no help from anyone, its alone fighting to come out, fighting to be changed - it knows if it doesnt break out of that shell it will remain in there, hidden & will never learn to fly... 

The butterfly perseveres to come out of its 'comfort zone', so that it can be all that it is designed to be - which is to FLY not to be hidden in a shell - it doesn’t give up until it comes out. God has designed us to be great but that only happens after our INNER MERTAMOPHOSIS.


I too want to go through this MERTAMOPHOSIS...
 

 Genesis 32: 28 '' And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed''

Jacob received his MERTAMOPHOSIS, so can we :-)
