Close your eyes and take in a nice deep breath. Repeat three more times. Let’s visualize ourselves as butterflies.
You are a chrysalis wrapped tightly hanging on a branch. Your transformation or “metamorphosis.” is taking place. As you immerge from the chrysalis you have transformed into a new completely different insect. So, it is with us when we are born anew when we believe in Christ.
Imagine you’re a beautiful butterfly fluttering high in the sky. You see the lovely green valley below you with lots of colorful flowers, just waiting for you to enjoy.
You feel the wind blow against your delicate wings.
As the wind touches you, it gently blows away any worries, any stress you feel. Feel how wonderful it feels to be free. Your mind is clear and calm. You have left any worries far behind now.
You are completely peaceful. You are beautiful as you allow your true happiness to shine through.
The sun touches your body and warms you. The big, puffy clouds floating in the sky remind you how relaxed and calm you can be whenever you want, just by thinking about it.
The earth is a patchwork of color and you enjoy each moment here, gliding along feeling so joyful and peaceful. You spread your wings in a huge stretch.
It feels so good. Your body is calm and your mind is peaceful.
Take in a deep breath now and exhale slowly. Give your body a big stretch. With a clear, calm mind, say these words to yourself: I am peaceful, and I am calm, I am born anew believing in Christ.
