Tomorrow is the first day of December, and it's time for me to start up my 2019 dreaming. This is one of those tricky things for me. It takes a different energy to be still long enough to listen for my Father's voice and consider the deeper longings of my heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But He is good and trustworthy, and when aligned with Him, the plans in His heart for me somehow become the dreams I imagine. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Just one of those mysteries that's so far beyond me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _ #whenthingsweresmall #newyearresolutions ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #authenticfrani #flowerstagram #nashvilleflorist #underthefloralspell #ruffledblooms #alltheprettythings #designisinthedetails #liveslowly #linedrawing #botanicaldrawing #inklife #branding #seekthesimplicity #flowers #floralillustration #thatsdarling #flowerinspiration #flowerlover #plantspiration #signsofspring #signsofsummer #inspiredbypetals #creativityfound #livethelittlethings #botanicalpickmeup #flowerlove #floraltattoo

I've been recently considering how much of my life was created by my inability to plan and predict. The seemingly inaccurate timing of it all stirs up gratitude, knowing every beautiful moment is an unexpected gift, knowing my best planning couldn't have given me what I have. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thankful that my Father smiles upon me and sings over me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ _ #whenthingsweresmall #happythanksgiving ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #authenticfrani #flowerstagram #nashvilleflorist #underthefloralspell #ruffledblooms #alltheprettythings #designisinthedetails #liveslowly #linedrawing #botanicaldrawing #inklife #branding #seekthesimplicity #flowers #floralillustration #thatsdarling #flowerinspiration #flowerlover #plantspiration #signsofspring #signsofsummer #inspiredbypetals #creativityfound #livethelittlethings #botanicalpickmeup #flowerlove #floraltattoo #gratitudequotes

But would you believe, that as the sun pours through condensation-covered window panes, you are seen. This very moment Delight is your name and Peace is your sweater. This very moment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (from 08 Nov 2018) _ #whenthingsweresmall #pencilsketches ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #authenticfrani #handlettering #wellnessweekend #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetrybooks #lifelivedbeautifully #livefullyalive #abidingartists #bedeeplyrooted #boldbraveyou #encouragementgallery #graceupongrace #wellwateredwoman #itiswell #gritandvirtue #creativeflow #creativevibes #creativeliving #creativityfound #delightandbe #dailydoseofpaper #artfullyseeking #capturemycraft #botanicalart #calledtobecreative #plantspiration
One of the most settling truths: that as my Father’s presence is acknowledged in this life, my soul feels (and knows) its worth— that incomprehensible, scale-tipping weight of unchanging value. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (Also, my wrapping paper designs are up for pre-order! MASSIVE thank you to each of you who've ordered already, and to those who've shared my collection with your friends! You have no idea how that makes my heart completely burst. 🤗🤗🤗 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Orders scheduled to ship Nov. 30th - Dec 7th.
