Metamorphosis

I recently saw a much-larger-than-life-size doctumentary on "bugs" in the Omnimax at Ontario's science centre.

It was incredible seeing a fast forwarded version of an ugly caterpiller being transformed into a butterfly; while in the chrysalis the caterpillar completely loses its form, turning in to a liquid which somehow is recreated into a butterfly. It's a bit like our spiritual growth really. Messy, unlikely and beyond comprehension.

I think key is losing our form.

"He must increase, but I must decrease"
(John 3:30).
