The Painted Pony

There are many neat gifts to consider!

The Painting: The beauty of Holbein Duo Oils is really really obvious in this painting. I cannot praise the quality of these paints more. From using linseed oil and layer in thin layers to mixing color and applying them solidly like creamy butter without impasto...they hold up beautifully creating a dimensional carving to the canvas. This is one of my favorites of the year squeaking out in late November. It is one of the Spirit with out question.

The Thought: Yesterday was the first Sunday in Advent and I was not prepared. I have been writing you for the past few weeks about preparation and then the writer was not prepared. I cannot pass the blame anywhere but here. I have been fighting internet connection for the past two years and when my art work that I need to load and do things with cannot make it from my computer to my website after six or seven failed tries and two hours I get frustrated. Multiply that to occur at least four times a day and you know where I am coming from. That is why my wonderful mother was here Saturday trying to help upload things so I could paint.

Many consider that first candle lit yesterday as the candle of prophecy or the candle of hope. I touched on prophecy yesterday with the verses out of the Old Testament that spoke of the coming birth of the Messiah from a virgin. I continue to challenge you this week to connect back with God and begin to listen to what He places in your heart and mind. The prophets of old were not very popular people. God used them as a conduit to get His word out to the people, and the people did not want to listen. Many prophets died in painful ways because the people did not want to be reminded they were doing it wrong.

I think we all begin to squirm when we accept the fact that we are doing it wrong...living life wrong, making inconsiderate choices, or bad decisions that affect our entire life. There is no manual on the future of your life...but there is a book, The Bible, that can offer so much insight into your life, that if you spend time in its pages you will only benefit from it. Then those around you will catch the light from you....

Pass on the Hope today.

“But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives” 2 Peter 3:10-11

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 ...
