Our Love Story
Heath and I’s love story is one of Faith, Patience, and Obedience. I want to share it with you all because saying yes to Heath is one of the biggest “Ventures” or leaps of faith I have taken thus far. The journey from when I first met him to when I said yes was a journey of both heartbreak & restoration. God has used this story more than any other thing in my life to test my trust in Him (God), and to strengthen my faith and obedience. Below is the story that Heath & I wrote together for our wedding website. I hope that through reading this you can gain encouragement that God has your best story in mind even if you don’t see it. I hope that you can be encouraged to trust and obey him in the hardest areas, because He is worthy of your trust.
