"You will surely forget your trouble, recalling it only as waters gone by." Job 11:16


Ask any mother with grown children to talk about when they were in labor giving birth to their children and they will remember all the funny unique things, including the joy of the baby's arrival, but not very many will remember the vivid pain of labor and delivery. The growing years of that child will produce many painful situations as they struggle toward independence.

I think of what Job went through in the bible and know that there was a time after it all happened, that he would remember it without hurt, pain and loss. The devil caused Job's issues, but Job did not know that and wondered why God was doing it all to him. Job's friends did not believe God would do these things either unless Job was a bad person. God is always fair. Elihu was Job's wisest friend. He knew it was not God and told everyone just that. God took to task reminding all of who He was, resulting in Job and his friends asking for forgiveness. God forgave them all. God even made Job successful again where he could move on in life despite the pain and loss brought on by the devil.

No matter what the journey may be, God is there with you. The memory of the happening may stay with you, but time will fade the pain as life fills back into you. Are there things that have happened in your life that you want to forget, or tried to forget? We all have something we cling to from a happening to cruel names or words. Often we carry dislike for someone due to something from the past, not realizing to forgive is to forget. It is time to forgive. It is time to forget.

Let it go today....and move on in your life to the positive side of living.

Grace and Abundance,
Laurie

Sunlit Bowl

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Sunlit Bowl Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   A Painting of soft pink and white flowers   created in 2013 brings back memories of living at Lake Cypress Springs. I loved it there. It did not love me!  Mold was my downfall.  I was prolific at painting there with my studio looking over the waters of a large catfish pond and Lake Cypress Springs. The mold pushed us back to DRY Dallas.  God guides our path today.  Memories are flooding in with the morning sun.  Proverbs 4:18    “ The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.”  Today will be over 100 degrees but by Saturday the high is 79. Weather is the main talk these days. Remember I am in Texas.   We heard they may get snow in the Ohio River Valley. We are to see storms from the Pacific Hurricane coming our directio...
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...
