Monarch Butterfly - 1 of 3

For your consideration...the following is an excerpt from a radio spot on KAPL radio, Jacksonville, Oregon, called " Akin For the Truth". To listen to the entire spot (a few minutes long), click the little microphone icon....Jack

When looking at creatures whose design, habits and/or migrations are unexplainable without the consideration of a careful and wise Creator, we should not leave out the Monarch Butterfly. Even though Monarch Butterflies are small creatures, they do phenomenal things. First, they develop from tiny eggs, to a caterpillar, become chrysalis, and finally transform into beautiful butterflies. They migrate, traveling great distances to winter in temperate climates. Amazingly, no one butterfly makes the entire round-trip journey. During winter the butterflies do not reproduce, but in spring return to summer homes, breeding along the way. And yet somehow their offspring know to return to the starting point. Female butterflies begin the cycle when one small, pin head sized, white egg is laid underneath the leaf of a milkweed plant - a plant that is poisonous to most creatures.
