文档介绍：Butterfly's Wings
One day a small opening appeared on a cocoon (茧), a man sat and watched for the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.
Then it seemed to stop making any progress . It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly, he took a pair of scissors(剪刀) and snipped(剪断) off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily.
But it had a swollen(肿胀的) body and small, shrivelled(皱褶的) wings.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings could enlarge and expand to be able to surpport the body, which would contract in time.
Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spend the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shrivelled wings. It was never able to fly.
What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were God's way of forcing fluid form the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it could be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
