Check out Devin Turner’s new single “Butterfly.” It’s a narrative about a woman who has too often settled for mediocre and abusive relationships, but soon finds her reason for existence in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Realizing her value in her relationship with Christ, causes her to make lifestyle changes. She now lives with certainty that she can have a healthy relationship with a man, who will respect and honor her the way that she deserves. This song, communicates the fact that all women are beautiful; made in the image of God and have a purpose that He created them for.
Many hip-hop songs paint a picture that women are to be degraded and settle for low expectations in a relationship with a man. The metaphor the song illustrates, is that a woman with a “caterpillar” mentality will let the cocoon of society and popular opinion define her existence. However; A “butterflies”mentality, bursts out of the cocoon away from this mindset and soars high in the assurance of purpose. The Butterflies existence can only be found first and foremost in a relationship with Christ.
