A man asked God for a flower and butterfly but received a cactus and caterpillar instead. Though initially disappointed, he decided not to question God's plan. Over time, the cactus bloomed into a beautiful flower and the caterpillar transformed into a butterfly. The story teaches that God's ways are always best even if we don't understand, and what we want is not always what we need. We should trust that God will provide what is needed at the right time.
