Yesterday I did not paint. Today I hope to paint as we prepare for our departure to Marble Falls. I am way excited to be apart of this show and seeing so many new faces and some old ones as well. Marnie wrote me that Jim and Marilee Heister will be there. They are neighbors from my childhood. I just moved back to the neighborhood where Terry and I grew up...and I always wondered where they were and where their daughter Layne is. She was two years younger than me but we were the same tall height and shared our closets. It was nice.

With so much bickering on the tv with campaign ads and the debates...my ears burn and my stomach churns. I do not talk politics and will not here, but I will address forgiveness. The folks involved here have much to ask of each other as they all continue to fill the airways with their claims. When we do complain of others and their actions, we are traveling a path of negativity. It is here we need to stop and reaffirm God in His greatness and all the good experiences we have. Your world becomes instantaneously brighter when you practice forgiveness. The more you practice, the more it becomes a normal way of life for you.

Did you ever think how often God has to forgive us? Who can you reach out and forgive today?

Grace,
Laurie


"Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive."--Colossians 3:13

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 ...
