CATERPILLARS AND CHAMELEONS

There are two creatures on earth that I find equally fascinating. One is the caterpillar and the other the chameleon. Chameleons have the amazing ability to alter their appearance in order to blend into their background. Christians who do this have no effective witness. On the other hand the caterpillar has the amazing ability to morph into something beautiful – a butterfly. The process makes the creature appear dead and silent for a while, but an inner transformation or metamorphosis is taking place. This is the manner of transformation God intends we undergo through offering our bodies as living sacrifices to God.

And when we me make this our life choice as believers in community the world will know that we are Jesus’ disciples by our love for one another.
