"So the power of God could be seen in him." John 9:3

As you can tell I have been adjusting things on the blog. I had noticed Jelaine's blog and loved her three column approach and when I wrote her, she sent me on to Sarah Trefny, who was kind enough to help me add my third column. What I still need to figure out, is how to adjust the type margins not to hit the edges... but I am way out of my knowledge area now. You will see adjustments as I play with it!


Yesterday was catch-up day. I had clients to meet with at lunch; infact Morgan and Kelly came too and hopefully both Morgan and I will be able to do some art work for this project. It is a Doctors Office of the future, so it is definitely pulling at my heart. Currently the practice is 30 years young and at this point totally built to serve medicaid patients in a hispanic area of Dallas. This doctor has kept his vision and his service to the Dallas community on target all the way. With his new clinic he will provide full services of OBGYN, Pediatrics, Family Practioner, in house Pharmacy, large x-ray area with CSCAN etc. etc. etc. If our involvement is blessed to continue with them, I will definitely share more. It is so unusual in this day and time to find folks that have dedicated their lives to help others with out worrying about what's in it for them. This husband and wife team is very dedicated to this community. That is why I chose my verse above to reflect this moment. God's power burns brightly in this doctor and his continual gift to serve and now to provide a new well-equiped facility for the practice. Obviously God has nurtured a vision within him to complete this goal. Through blind trust he is watching it all come to be.

It is an honor to participate with my art work. The power of the Lord is amazing.



Kelly and Morgan

They are cute together. They knew each other while growing up at St Paul United Church of Christ in Dallas. I do not think they had seen each other in 15 years and they caught up this past week. Friends are one of the best things we can have in life.

Stacey remains on bedrest and her best friend is flying in from Los Angelos tomorrow to stay for a week. She will help Stacey get Lauren's room ready and there is another shower next week. Natalie will return when Lauren arrives and will stay with Stacey for a few weeks to help out. DID I SAY YEAH?? Yes I did! My mother came with two of mine and stayed to help me for a week. I would not have made it otherwise.
Here are pictures from the shower last weekend:








I am off to paint! May He fill your every need.

Joy and Abundance,
Laurie

power you have used for us before." Psalm 68:28

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 ...
