New Life in Christ

Enclosed within my warm cocoon
safe and secure, but oh so lonely
I endured until I could endure no more
then came the struggle of my life

until free, I found myself shivering in the cold
newly discovered wings, but afraid to fly
I considered crawling back into my cocoon
and then I heard the Master say...

It is for freedom that Christ has set you free.
Stand firm, then, and do not let yourself be
burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
                                          (Galatians 5:1)

It was then, that I spread my wings and flew!
