Well, I pray that this practical advice that has proven helpful in my own life, encourages you in your walk with Him as you hide His Word in your heart.

Hey lovely humans! Welcome back to part 2 of this sweet conversation with my man! Last week we discussed the importance of preparing your heart before stepping into a relationship by seeking the Lord first because He is worthy of our first pursuit. Josh shared what that looked like for him in his journey leading us to us dating. Today I will be sharing what God taught me by stepping into this relationship with Josh. While yes - it is so important to prepare intentionally and proceed with prayer and community - it is also important not to think you have to be "perfect" before you can step into a relationship. If this is the case, you will be waiting your whole life. I pray this episode encourages you and challenges you in a good direction. We love you!! What a sweet journey :)

The fabulous florist for my wedding is joining us on the podcast today, sharing the meaning behind "Samantha's Garden", her flower business that is nothing short of a miracle. The Lord is so powerful, so redemptive, and so worthy to be praised! He can take a woman who didn't have a gardening bone in her body to a woman who owns a flower company and puts stunning bouquets together. He can take a teenage girl who had an abortion to a woman who is tasting and seeing the freedom and grace and healing power of God. I never get tired of hearing this story because I never get tired of hearing the kindness and power and sovereignty of the Lord.
