Day 11: From Silkworm to Butterfly

November 7, 2026 · 41 min

Show notes

A silkworm doesn't stay a silkworm forever, and God doesn't want us to stay the same, either. Sr. Katie Flanagan explores St. Teresa of Ávila's image of the silkworm and butterfly, reminding us that growing closer to God means being willing to change. Today, we read The Fifth Dwelling Places: Chapter 2.
