One day a man found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body t 1 that little hole. Then it seemed to stop m 2 any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.
So the man d 3 to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out e 4 . But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man c 5 to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become l 6 and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the r 7 of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature r 8 . Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid (流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be r 9 for flying. It must have a hard struggle (拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly w 10 we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any d 11 , it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.
