ARISE UNRESTRAINED

30”x40” Original Acrylic painting on gallery wrapped canvas.

Prophetic Meaning:
Many people live their lives inside of a cocoon, waiting for someone else to set them free. Waiting for a green light or for permission from the world. . We all know that the butterfly has to break itself out of the cocoon! It’s a struggle and uncomfortable (trust me just watch a video on YouTube of a butterfly breaking out of a cocoon) . Even then the butterfly isn’t ready yet to fly. It has to pump fluid out of its body into its wings until they become large, and then wait for the wings to dry and become stiff. Which can take a couple of hours! . Man, that’s probably an uncomfortable process. And if I was that little butterfly inside a cocoon it might take a lot of courage to break out. . I just want to encourage you, it’s time to spread your wings and fly. Yes it can be a little scary , but it’s more scary to stay locked up inside the cocoon, never stepping into your full potential and never trying. 🦋 . For the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.” Ephesians 5:14
