A man found a cocoon. One day a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the
butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through the little hole. Then it
seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and
could not go on further. So the man decided to help the butterfly.
He took a pair of scissors and snipped the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly
could now emerge from the cocoon easily. But something was odd. The butterfly had a swollen
body and shrivelled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected
that at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body,
which would contract in time. Neither happened. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life
crawling around with a swollen body and deformed wings. It was never able to fly.
Wliat the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon
and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the small opening of the cocoon are
nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it is renay jo
flight as soon as it emerges from it cocoon. Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need to
our lives. If nature allowed us to go through all our life without any obstacles, it
cripple us. We would not be as strong as we could have been. Not only that, we could never !!

Answer:
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly.
One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.
Until it suddenly stopped making any progress and looked like it was stuck.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily, although it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.
The man didn’t think anything of it and sat there waiting for the wings to enlarge to support the butterfly. But that didn’t happen. The butterfly spent the rest of its life unable to fly, crawling around with tiny wings and a swollen body.
Despite the kind heart of the man, he didn’t understand that the restricting cocoon and the struggle needed by the butterfly to get itself through the small opening; were God’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings. To prepare itself for flying once it was out of the cocoon.
Moral of the story:
Our struggles in life develop our strengths. Without struggles, we never grow and never get stronger, so it’s important for us to tackle challenges on our own, and not be relying on help from others.
