There are beautiful spiders and beautiful butterflies. For the most part, both beasties do a wonderful job of fulfilling the measure of their creation. I hope that as Children of God, we are doing as well as both these creatures do in fulfilling the measure of our creation. By the way, both spiders and butterflies come in varieties that eat disgusting things and are vicious is their actions.

Joseph Smith taught, "It is the first principle of the Gospel to know for a certainty the character of God," and it seems to me that knowing how He feels about His children is a vital part of that knowledge. It's also no accident that the Restoration Proclamation begins with the proclamation that, "God loves His children in every nation of the world." Thanks for sharing this new analogy that expresses a positive that God might view us as we are while at the same time seeing what we might become.
