Yesterday, I wrote about the transformation of a caterpillar to a butterfly, and how that process in Nature is a metaphor for the reality of spiritual regeneration, in the life of those who receive Christ and, thus, they are "born again": they become a "new creature" in Christ.
I alluded to the cocoon as being a kind of death-chamber for the caterpillar. Indeed, it is. This morning, I saw repentance in a new light, which I need to go back and relate that to the caterpillar and its cocoon.
