This world is a jar for butterflies. But don’t lose sight of the beauty and freedom I have given you now.
When you enter eternity, this world will resemble the jar that held the butterfly.
Think about dear loved ones who have left you. They are precious to you and their loss bites into your soul.
Your anguish stems from being left behind. You remain in the jar for now.
Remember that they are now butterflies set free. I enjoy watching the butterfly with its oranges and yellow and blues, free to fly.
I want you to embrace your time in this world. I want you to enjoy bold colors now. Feel the cool air beneath your wings. Float in the breeze. All in this time that you still have in this world.
Also envision a future of freedom, beauty, and vibrant colors in the new world. One day, with me and with your loved ones.
Yet I am confident I will see the Lord’s goodness

while I am here in the land of the living.
Wait patiently for the Lord.
Be brave and courageous.
Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.
