Why have I been so silent?

Okay, so you guys might be wondering why I haven't posted in a while- unless you follow me on social media;) But if you don't, I have been silent because I have been busy with... 
My brother Elijah and his new fiancé! He got engaged this past Sunday to Faith Grubb and we are all thrilled for him!! I will share a few pictures like normal. But you may be wondering how they met and where and such. I will provide you with a few details. 
He met her this past March (2015) at a get together he and my other brother attended. Over the spring and summer they got to know each other long distance and after praying about it, they felt the Lord leading them to marriage. Faith is from the big state Texas, and so it is a ways from where we live, but Elijah doesn't mind the drive to see her, and makes the trip when time allows. Hopefully we will get to see their family this fall and have some good fellowship time with them:) We look forward to seeing them, and helping Elijah and Faith as they embark on this journey together! 
And for now- that is the only picture I share with you of their engagement:) we are so excited for you Elijah and Faith! May God bless you in this new phase of life! 
Aren't they just the cutest couple you've ever seen😉
Until next time
~ Elise

Passing unnoticed

Sometimes it seems like life moves very slowly, and other times it seems that it moves very quickly. It seems that the opposite of what I want, happens. If I wish for it to move slowly, it moves quickly, and if I wish it would move quickly, it moves slowly. Nevertheless, the past 5 months have come and gone like a flash. I can hardly believe January is almost over. I realize that there may be very few people who read my blog; perhaps a lot of that has to do with how infrequently I write. ;) But I was thinking about what I might blog about and looking through pictures... I guess it is really the little things that make up a beautiful life. It's the little things everyday that make fond memories. I tend to be so task oriented that I forget to stop and notice the dew drops on the flower, the frost patterns on the window, the unique sunrise... the smiles which are flashed at me every day. And then- suddenly these precious times are gone. It's a new stage of life, the things w...

Saved by Grace

Recently I was asked to share my salvation testimony- and even though I have done that many times before, I can not help being amazed every time I share it.  I can not help but think how amazing God is for saving me! He continues to love me even when I forget about Him in my daily life! How could I forget about someone who loved me so much, that He died  for me!!? " And can it be that I should gain An interest in the Savior’s blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain— For me, who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be, That Thou, my God, wouldst die for me? Amazing love! How can it be, That Thou, my God, wouldst die for me?" And saying that, I thought I would share my testimony with you as well.  I have been raised in a godly, christian home and therefore, I grew up hearing the Bible read to me everyday.  When I was four years old, Daddy explained to me the importance of having a personal relationship with God. He explained that I could...

New Years Resolutions??

I was thinking about what my New Years goals and resolutions should be while playing the piano the other night and I was singing this song, and I thought, "I couldn't have better goals and resolutions than these..." Take my life and let it be consecrated Lord to Thee, take my moments and my days, let them flow in ceaseless praise. Take my feet and let them be swift and beautiful for Thee. Take my voice and let me sing, always only for my King! Take my silver and my gold, not a mite w ill I withhold. Take my heart it is Thy own, it will be Thy royal throne. Take my will and make it Thine, it will be no longer mine.  Take my hands and let them move at the impulse of Thy love!  Take my love; my Lord, I pour, at thy feet it's treasure store. take myself, and I will be Ever, only, all for Thee."  "May the mind of Christ my Savior live in me from day to day, by His love and power controlling- All I Do And Say."   There is much that I am unsure about in this...
