I saw a yellow butterfly in my garden,you may say so what? well I mention this is because I usually only see white butterflies,I tried to get a photo of if,but I was unsuccessful.What I did next was to get on the internet to find out about it,and I read that it's a symbol of joy,happiness,good fortune,a new beginning,and can even be seen as a spiritual messenger.Well you could have knocked me down with a feather, when I read all those things.I just wanted to know it's name,and look what I got,it's better than a chinese fortune cookie.The thing is this,sad to say many people take what is said about the yellow butterfly serious. This reminds me how superstitious people are,from knocking over the salt celler,or a lucky nunber ,or a black cat crossing their path,and so we could go on, but we won't.The word of God teaches wonderful truths,as regards good fortune,King David said this as regards God,'Wealth and honour come from you;' 1 Ghron- icles 1 v12 and in Psalm 75 v 6-7 we read ,'For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west,nor from the south. But God is the judge: he putteth one down,and setteth up another.'It is our sovereign God to whom we should look as regards all our affairs,instead of reading the stars,we should be looking to the one who made the stars, God.

Christians vocabulary'
