Publisher's Synopsis
There's Strength in Your Wings
Watching a butterfly float effortlessly through the air can make even the busiest person stop and stare in wonder at God's exceptional creation.
To author Jessica Anderson, butterflies reflect to her more than just a brief moment to enjoy nature; its journey to becoming a butterfly can gleam more truths to use in our lives than first realized.
Her new book, There's Strength in Your Wings: Experiencing Your Life Through the Metamorphosis of the Butterfly, details the different stages of a butterfly's metamorphosis while comparing the stages to what a human experiences from birth to adulthood physically and spiritually.
The book is separated into four distinct stages, beginning first with Stage 1's egg status and concluding with Stage IV's emergence into adulthood (cleverly titled "Your Wings Are Ready"). The stages are filled with descriptions of the butterfly's progress, personal stories from the author about the stage, and words of wisdom to take to heart for any situation.
What shines most in There's Strength in Your Wings is Jessica's recognition of God's presence and provision through every stage of the butterfly and the person. Witnessing the Lord move in her own life during several challenges (pregnancy, following God's instructions) and blessings (fulfilling a call to write), Jessica uses her insight to inspire readers to seek God in life and prayerfully follow His loving guidance.
Jessica hopes readers not only develop a thriving relationship and dependence on God as they read her book, but that they also see every day as a gift to learn more about themselves and who they are in Christ.
Just as a butterfly celebrates the opportunity to spread its wings and explore the world, There's Strength in Your Wings also wants readers to spread their wings and celebrate who God has created them to be.
