The Purpose in Your Pain: The Butterfly Emerges After the Battle

Can purpose really be found in one’s pain? For the beautiful butterfly to emerge, the caterpillar has to first be broken. Horrible things happen in the school of life, but when the trial is over, we tend to look back and see the purpose in the pain. Growth, stronger faith in God, and a testimony are just some of the things that are birthed through the mess. Shannon uses her life story to show the reader that our pain has a purpose beyond our human comprehension. Some lessons can only be learned by suffering, and some parts of our purpose can only be found after the pain. For flying to take place, the gruesome process of metamorphosis must happen, and though our trials are gut-wrenching, the end result is somehow always glorious when we put our life in the hands of the Creator.
