God really does go before us, as my mom was born in Cocoa Beach, & my dad was born in Nashville, & thus, my love for the beach & the South was born :) He is always with us (& orders His angels for protection ♥︎) wherever we go, even when we don't see His footprints in real-time (or understand where or why He may be leading us).
The Lord has guided me along my path from PA & NJ to NC & TN, & the way God has graciously & gradually (@ 3mph ;)) revealed Himself to me over the years — through walks, talks, dreams, & prayers (among other wondrous ways :)) — can only be the work of His holy hands. He has used people of all kinds & all generations throughout my faith journey to communicate & help me receive His love & strength (& knows that people are the way to my heart & the best way for me to learn about & encounter Him :))! The people He has intentionally placed in my life (& the timing in which He has placed them!) have been my pathways to God's goodness & grace. For this, I am eternally grateful. Walking through life with people who love God & point me closer to Him — as well as with those who love & accept me like He does — is life's greatest blessing.

ABOUT
It's so sweet to think about where people’s souls are drawn to on this side of heaven :) As frequently as I dream about the beach, the friends, families, and community I have been blessed with in Nashville (& the FAITH I feel there!) have kept my heart anchored (down ;)) in Tennessee —everything about it & all of its kind, faith-filled people feel like HOME ♡ !!!!!

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, & self-control — I appreciate all of them for different reasons & in different seasons & have recently been picturing them as colors/actual fruits in my head :) May need to do a Substack post on this...;)

MORE BIG DREAMS ON SUBSTACK
Livin' the dream!! Little Heather dreamt of being a dog lover, & this dream is still very much alive today! We were blessed with the sweetest pup (named Joy! :')). She was my giiirl & had the gentlest temperament for our fam. I loved walking with her & having her loving companionship. She was a true joy & especially enjoyed sniffing the salty air & people watching at the beach :)
Praying for my future dog(s) one day! ♡ Long walks & puppy luvin' loading...!!! Until then, I'll be trackin' paw prints in the sand :')
CHILDHOOD DREAMS !
ABP = ALWAYS B PRAYIN'
SENDIN' UP THE T'S & P'S
Always praying to continue following the Lord's lead & live closer to the calling He has for my life. He has given me the dream & vision of Walk by Faith 3mph, as it is truly the work of Jesus & the Holy Spirit inside of me. I will never be able to express my gratitude enough for those who have prayed for & encouraged me along my journey. Sharing WBF3MPH with the people that mean the most to me & with those who inspire me daily in their unwavering faith & walks with Jesus is truly an answered prayer!
