A Butterfly Kiss From God

Sometimes you just need someone to tell you that everything is going to be okay.

Maybe you were two years old and got a “boo-boo” on your knee from falling down in the driveway.

Maybe your mom kissed it to “make it feel better” and your dad picked you up and told you that you were okay.

It doesn’t change
when you get older.

But if your mom or your dad aren’t around to kiss your hurts to make them better or pick you up, hug you, and tell you everything’s going to be okay . . . 

then what do you do?

Look around.

Maybe you’ll get a butterfly kiss from God  
  like I did yesterday.

I had heard something that was disconcerting and went out into my yard to water the flowers and be peaceful.

And a beautiful, orange and black butterfly landed on my shirt over my heart.

I looked down, then looked up, and said, “Thank You!”

Butterfly kisses from God
make everything better.
