Secrets of the struggle for life

There is a story that deserves to be our reflections together how we face it PT live and struggle. At one point someone found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small hole appeared. He sat watching the candidates in a few hours of butterflies when she struggled with forcing himself through the small hole. Then the butterfly stopped making progress. Seems he has tried he could and could not further.
Finally someone decided to help him. He took a pair of scissors and cut the rest of the confinement of the cocoon. Butterflies are out with ease. Cheerful heart because that person has let go of the difficulties suffered by the butterfly. However, this butterfly has a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. These people continue to watch because he expected that, at one point, the wings that will bloom and widened so as to sustain his body, which may be developed over time.

In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of his life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. He never could fly. What is not understandable from the good and the rush of people was that inhibiting the cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly through a small hole is God's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that he'll be ready to fly so he gain freedom from the cocoon.
From the story if we sometimes think of the name is a struggle that we need in our lives. If God let us live without the obstacles and struggles, it may actually be crippling us. We may not be as strong as that should you need to sustain the ideals and expectations that we ask. We may never be able to "Fly". Surely God is Merciful and the Most Merciful.
There is another adage from previous poets
We beg Strength ...
And God gave us the difficulties to make us stronger.
We apply the policy ...
And God gave us life issues to be resolved so that we grow wise.
We ask the prosperity ...
And God gave us brains and power to be used completely in achieving prosperity.
We ask Tenacity ...
And God gave disasters and hazards to overcome.
We beg Love ...
And God gave us those problems to be rescued and loved.
We Pleading for mercy / kindness ...
And God gave us the opportunities which in turns.
That's how God led Kita. Would if I do not get what I want, meaning that I did not get everything I need? Sometimes God does not give what we ask for, but with God would provide the best for us, most of us do not get to know, do not even want to accept God's plan, even though they were the best for us.
Keep fighting ... trying ... I surrender ...
If it is best then God will give it to us.
Be thankful that you do not already have everything you want,
if so, let alone to be desired.
Be thankful when you do not know something,
because it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for hard times,
because in this period that you were growing.
Be thankful for the limitations,
because it gives you the chance to develop.
Be thankful for each new challenge
because it will build strength and character.
Life is a struggle, that's where we also need a sacrifice.
