Yesterday I first heard from Judy Mackey in Southlake, Texas.... "It is raining here."
I replied, "Short hard rain, or long slow rain?"
She answered back, "Looks like on and off rainy day maybe, lots of dark clouds."


About an hour later Debbie Lincoln phoned from Morgan Mill, west of Southlake... "Hey it's cooler here..."
I replied, "How cool is cooler?"
She answered back, "It is only 97 degrees outside."


Lord, Please it is time to release us from this heat wave. The entire month of August has been 100 degrees or more. 

My day yesterday was a catch up day anyway.  I continued to remind myself to give Thanks for all my blessings, including the 'redos' popping up in my life.  Do you have any of those?  Things you have done, but someone wants it redone? Some of you may call them "fix its".  Kids are good at asking for fix its.  Adults are more prone to ask for redos. I have canvas that undergo 'redo's'. Sometimes those sell for more than the freshly painted ones.


Got to thinking if I ever ask God that question.  "Lord, you are the Almighty and the Creator of all, I praise your works with every breath and ask your forgiveness for what I have done.  May I have both your forgiveness and a 'redo'?" Is that laughter from Heaven I hear?


"Lord, I give you my heart with all that I do, just this once may I have a redo? Whether it is my error or their error, please open the hearts of all involved and let us begin again."

Take a breath today and meditate before you start off the day. He is there waiting to hear from you.  Hey, you might get lucky and be allowed a 'redo'. 

Make sure you read the verse today.  I know I have told you before that I write this blog first, and then I go to a bible site and copy and paste the verse that is there for the day.  Lately the match up has been only His Work.  "He heard my cry for mercy (A redo)."

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 ...
