Black Swallowtails

"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse." - Romans 1:20

"Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into light." - Helen Keller

Tammy and I came home from work today to find that two Black Swallowtail butterflys had emerged from their chrysalis'. They really are quite beautiful. Within a few minutes of opening the door to the butterfly house both climbed to the top of the cage then flew off climbing upwards in a Westernly direction.

I am constantly impressed by the design of the created world around me. When you examine the wing of a butterfly in detail it is truly a thing of beauty. When you consider that it did not exist 10 days ago in butterfly form and that it was transformed during its pupa stage of development after begining life as a caterpillar it is a marvelous reminder of our creators world around us.
