“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.”

“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.” Sometimes it is, but don’t let that distract you from tending your own. Your shade is merely dependent on what you’re harvesting. Keep focused on your own harvest instead of investing time in thinking the shade of green you’re walking on isn’t as grandiose as your neighbors. This world needs different shades of green; stay focused on the greater purpose instead of on what you perceive as imperfect or bland. Have faith that one day you will see the perfection of the design that you are now too close to fully measure. –Ronda Rae Franklin

God's Whisper of Wisdom

The next time you find yourself confused, stop thinking and remind your heart that God is not a God of confusion - that's Satan's job. Stop thinking and listen to the voice that lives in your heart - God's whisper of wisdom will wash away your confusion and shine an unmistakable light upon the truth that was always there.

Fear is not an option worthy of acknowledgement ~ Give way to love instead..

"Love is an unspoken but booming voice; it is a whisper that is ever so clear; it is a never ending yet single moment, and it is a tear that is always wiped dry. 

Love, like joy, is an inner smile no matter your external surroundings or momentary circumstance. It is peaceful and gentle, bestowing grace and forgiveness even when it rages with the passion of the grandest waterfall. 

Love is the highest power in this world as it is your greatest gift from God. Do not fain love, do not turn from it, do not abuse it, do not fear it - and exercise it only for the power it was intended to harvest."~Ronda Rae Franklin

The Constant of Truth

The truth that once wasn't, but now is, really always was.

When you recognize something as truth, but time alters it in your eyes, that doesn't remove truth. Time does not change truth, but serves to move us into a different place. And in different places things appear and feel changed, but truth remains unmoved. 


Look for the one who shines true light, for His truth is always constant.
