About the Book
When we are simply being who we were created to be in Christ and doing what we were created to do in Him, we are sure to face opposition at some point. Not everyone is happy when we choose to live the life we were meant to live and do what is right. When Butterflies Fly was written to explain the importance of being made whole and how to be understanding in dealing with others who might not be. This book teaches young “butterflies” how to respond to others in a godly way, when it comes to dealing with opposition in the forms of critical attitudes, pride, selfishness, jealousy, and disrespect from others, while illustrating how discernment works and how to avoid the “traps” of unhealthy, codependent relationships by being whole themselves. When Butterflies Fly is a story that combines the contrasting differences between being whole versus not being whole, with a message of hope, forgiveness, healing, and love.
