Crossing Over
Horse Art Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace

18 x 27 inches
Inquiries: Laurie


My eyes do not want to be open, but tomorrow Terry starts back to work again after six days off. He is asleep, Mom is asleep and I woke and decided to jump in here to paint before everyone wakes up. Seems like once the household is awake and there is movement, my creativity seems to disappear. Hopefully they will both sleep until at least eight or nine and hopefully the phone will not ring too early!

Terry spent yesterday cleaning or unpacking or repacking a room that was stacked with models. Now they are all in my loft in our master bedroom. Here in Texas Boxes plus Boxes equals Roaches. I do not mix well with roaches. I have delayed mentioning this to him but will need to. If he built a model every week, he could live to be 140 years old. I have yet to figure out what we will do with all those models once he builds them. I will have to sneak up next week and snap a shot... then you will have full view of what I mean.

My Daily Word talks about Divine Synergy today. Actually it is pretty good and simple with thought progression. How many of us do not have an issue we are dealing with in our lives right now? I cannot see many hands up in the air. The thought of Divine Synergy goes back to the idea of where ever two or more are gathered in prayer...that simple one plus one equals two. When you have two gathered in prayer you basically create something greater they refer to as combined action Divine Synergy. With this energy of prayer, praise and thanksgiving results follow. It can be a transformation of the issue or a resolution of the issue. So remember when you are heavy with the burden of things, to reach out not just to God but to others in your life and ask for prayer. All things are possible and we gotta have faith.

My favorite mantra right now is WAIT UPON THE LORD.

I did receive a note late last night from a reader/collector requesting prayer for her dog who had undergone pancreatic surgery and taken a turn for the worse. We are dog people here and firm believers that God created dogs to be a stress reliever in our lives as well as add so much love. We lift little India up in prayer.



My personal prayer request is for my St Louis family. This is my Mother's sister, brother-in-law and their children and grandchildren. Transformation and healing prayers are requested as my Aunt is currently hospitalized and in intensive care. Her birthday is just a few days away and I am thinking she will be 87. My uncle is a few years older. Pray for Peace and a gathering of strength for the family.

Grace,
Laurie

I certainly enjoy reading you blog and your fine art. Here I hope you do not mind if I ask you about your SOVN bed. I happen to look for a right one and I can tell it works great for you. Which model did you get and any discount?

I appreciate your time answering my question.
Truman, do not know how to email you! I will write in my blog tomorrow. I am not sure what my model is called. They are all built individually. We have both the coils and the foam. WE LOVE IT! We sleep sooo much better. And no disct. bed and pillows were a bit over $4000.

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 ...
