If a butterfly is caught in a rainstorm, will it survive? Sure, it heads for protection under trees. But in the process, what if its fragile wings are hit by a few raindrops? Raindrops can fall up to twenty-two miles per hour, and depending on their size can make quite an impact.

The Bible Says . . .

There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: the same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
