Butterflies don’t just fly at any time, or recklessly.
To take flight, a butterfly’s body must be warm.
It must maintain a body temperature of over 30°C to be able to soar.
30°C is the temperature of love toward something.
Everyone who soars is someone who loves.
— From “The Butterfly”
We must be honest before God.
God does not seek perfection—He seeks honesty.
None of God’s friends in the Bible were perfect. Thankfully, by His grace, Jesus is still called “a friend of sinners” (Matthew 11:19).
Even in painful and confusing situations, we must trust that God is working for our good.
Expressing our anger and emotions is the first step toward healing. Pour out your heart to God—tell Him exactly how you feel.
The Psalms were given to us by God to help us be honest.
They are a manual for worship, filled with cries, complaints, doubts, fears, anger, deep passion, thanksgiving, praise, and words of faith.
— Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life
🍒 We are masterpieces, created in the image of God.
Each day of life we live is a work of art, like a beautiful film.
You are the lead actor in a film directed by God, the King of heaven.
There is no reason to fear, worry, or be anxious—because our Director has already prepared a grand adventure and a happy ending for us.
Even movie actors take care of their health, prepare for their roles, memorize scripts, and study with passion and dedication during filming.
In the same way, we need love and passion for life each morning when we open our eyes and rise.
Just as a butterfly needs a temperature of 30°C—the warmth of love—to fly,
we too need the warmth of love to soar.
Even praying for just one person for one minute can raise the temperature of love.
This is a win-win—a soaring temperature of love.
Our children, families, friends, church community, workplaces, the U.S., Korea, and the whole world need our love’s warmth.
Let us today be honest and open before God, pouring out our hearts in prayer.
And may we be set on fire by the Holy Spirit—
to soar like butterflies, love deeply, serve boldly, and live victoriously! 🦅
