MONARCHS
- THE EGG & CATERPILLAR
Adult
female Monarchs lay their eggs singly, one egg on the
underside of each milkweed leaf. The egg larvae feed on
the milkweed leaves for about two weeks and develop into
caterpillars. A caterpillar remains on the plant where
the egg was laid and feeds. Caterpillars grow several
thousand times in size, to about 2 inches.
The
Monarch butterfly is sometimes called the "milkweed
butterfly" because the only thing the larvae and
caterpillar eats is milkweed. The milkweed has a poison
that keeps this butterfly safe from predators. The
toxins from the milkweed give the butterfly a natural
defense.

PARABLE
Today
Wayne heard the Lord say, "Potential." That was a
confirmation to me because yesterday I had a children’s
song repeating over and over again in my mind. (One of
the ways the Lord speaks to us is through bringing a
song to our mind.)
Children’s song:
"I am a
promise. I am a possibility. I am a promise, with a
capital P. I am a great big bundle of potentiality. And
I am trying to hear God’s voice and I am trying to make
the right choice. I am a great big bundle of
potentiality."
Many
times when the Lord plants His seed within us, it comes
as a promise of what He is bringing us into. With His
seed planted within us, we are a bundle of potentiality.

HEARD
POEM:
Come and
dine on the Master's truth. Come and dine.
It's
time to feast at My table. Yes, it's time.
Who is
blind but My servant who thinks he really sees?
I AM
opening your eyes to set you completely free,
With
eyes birthed for now and eternity.
A "New
Age" they say, from eyes too blind to see.
For what
they say, can't be.
Because
the New Age comes forth through you - by Me.
It's a
seed I planted 2000 years ago.
A seed
to whom I said, "Now grow!"
It's a
mystery created in front of their eyes.
It's the
story of the butterfly.
It's
been a worm.
And in
the cocoon it's had its turn.
Out of
the darkness and into the light
Bursts
forth My seed with glory bright.
This is
the New Age and they will declare it.
Yes,
Candle, I light your flame.
You, My
Pillar, with a new name.
What's
birthed, comes from afar.
My own
ones to whom I have given the morning star.
Overcomers in every way,
All
things they conquered to begin the New Day.
Birthed
out of majesty, their words declare.
There is
nothing, no nothing that will ever compare.

to Ponder are summaries of His quickened Words}
WORD TO
PONDER MY GOD SEED IS PLANTED
I
planted My tiny God seed inside of you and carefully
surrounded you with the milk of My Word. Slowly you grew
to the place where you could crawl around in search for
nourishment. All these years I have watched you eat and
grow, eat and grow, then eat some more - and grow, grow,
grow.
My seed
in you may be very, very tiny, but what marvelous things
I have in store for those that love Me! As always, each
seed produces after its own kind and because I have
planted the seed of Myself inside you, one day My very
image shall reflect in all that you do and all that you
are.
Someday
you will no longer crawl like a worm within the limits
of your planting, but you shall sprout wings of faith
that will take you high above all circumstances. You
shall overcome, against all odds and rise in newness of
life. Do not worry, My love. You are safe in Me. You may
feel small and overwhelmed as you see wicked adversaries
press in, but they will not devour you. As you have fed
upon My Word and My Word has sustained and changed you,
this has also produced a toxin inside of you that is
poisonous to your adversaries. What I have planted in
your life shall not fail. You are My child, and you will
have all eternity to discover what that really means.
Gal
4:6-7 NKJV
And
because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of
His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!"
Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a
son, then an heir of God through Christ.
