REFLECTIONS OF GLORY

Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

Contemporary Art

SOLD


Good morning. I was up painting this at two a.m. We stayed up watching a movie and Terry rolled over and started snoring last night and my mind was going ninety to nothing. So about One thirty I got up and decided to paint and I did until I finished it. Granted I am typing this with zero sleep in over 24 hours...but oh well.

This piece had to do with direction and lack of and taking the time to reflect of where we are and not so much where we are going. Must let that be up to God. We drove into Dallas yesterday with good intentions of moving the last of our boxes out of my father in law's house to our storage unit there. We also were going to pick up our other sailboat to bring it back to the country. Well, we got there and we took off for Krogers to pick up his prescriptions, then to the realtor's to sign paperwork on the house and lastly to Three Fountains where he is moving. No box moving...but we did load the boat on the trailer and make a dash for dinner to ST Cafe in the Lake Highlands area. YUM. Soup, salad and a small plate of grilled chicken and mushrooms over linguine. Coming home was slow pulling the sailboat.

Cultivate a loving heart as you wait on divine direction. Keep yourself open and prepared to share your loving heart with those on your journey.

Shalom,
Laurie

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans."   Worrisome times laced with prayers.   The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes.  My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years?  You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting.  Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."  One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works.  The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 .  Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
