Consider the analogy of the butterfly: often it is used to draw a comparison of what a person goes through when they become one of My children.

A clay pot is shaped and refined by the Potter’s hand, set upon the wheel He spins. His movements gently guiding the clay into the formation He thinks best suits this container. For each is created with a particular use in mind, the design He had imagined from its original inception, the point when He brought all things to be.

As the mouth of the river opens up to the sea and finally makes its way to where these two bodies of water are joined, this is where the singular force becomes part of a larger whole. The river exists to be its own refreshing canal, yet it is connected to something more expansive. So just as there is a point within the origin of its existence where this tributary began, coming from a space where the water abounds and is established on the earth, My children were created to mimic this design, by being an individual who moves and flows as an estuary of My presence.
When the winds of change blow across the land, there is a cleansing effect which happens as the old is pushed out, making way for the new I wish to be ushered in. For this hearty gust is not something meant to cause worry as it carries within it the seeds of the future.
