Tuesday, August 21, 2012. The moment was a wonderfully unexpected whirlwind, so Ben and I typed this story of our engagement up after he proposed so we would not forget all the amazing details to our story. Enjoy! Our Engagement August 18, 2012 4:30 pm Atlanta State Park. After this wonderful quiet time, Ben asked if I would like to go for a drive. We love the beauty of the trees and scenery in East Texas.

A New Normal: Restored
http://shannonelylessofme.blogspot.com/2013/01/restored.html
Wednesday, January 2, 2013. Happy New Year 2013! Once at the Grand Canyon, we discovered that the entire National Park was blanketed by perfect, glittering white snow! God used our visit to show me how petty and insignificant my worries and stresses are compared to the bigness and greatness of our God. I don't want to get so wrapped up in myself that I miss Him! I read the story of Zacchaeus in Luke 19 this morning and was able to relate. So [Zacchaeus] hurried down and received [Jesus] joyfully. Trainin...

A New Normal: April 2012
http://shannonelylessofme.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 15, 2012. Wherever He leads, i'll go. Well the guys (Ben, Matthew and Jonathan) are working on cars outside and I am stuck inside sick with what I'm hoping is not turning into bronchitis. Figure this is prime blog update time. While taking it all in, I cried out to God, "Father, can I please go back this summer? NO" Clear as day. No more, no less.but a definite, "no." Tears filled my eyes and emotions overwhelmed me. "But, why not? Isn't it a good thing to go visit the orphans and widows?

A New Normal: The Least of These
http://shannonelylessofme.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-least-of-these.html
Monday, May 6, 2013. The Least of These. God has been working something out in my heart the past few months, so I decided it was time to blog/process my heart. I hope you'll follow me on this journey! 8220;The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.". In my life, "the least of these" has typically fallen into two categories: the homeless/hungry, or orphans/widows. Afterall, in Matthew 25:35 Jesus says,. And that's wh...

Friday, April 8, 2011. Now the plans that I have made fail to compare when I see Your glory. Ruin my life the plans that I've made. Ruin desires for my own selfish gain. Destroy the idols that have taken your place, til it's You alone I live for. I love this Jeff Johnson song and was so excited when the band started playing this song at our youth's dnow weekend recently. Except while singing the familiar words, the Holy Spirit starting pressing me. Do you really mean these words you're singing? And now I...
