Moments of meditation are abundant for me through out yesterday and this morning.  Just sitting back and totally immersing my mind in the simplicity of this granddaughter. Our God is so good.


This is so true of many of the things that grace our world, from the simple blooming pink rose blowing on the vine outside the window, to the quiet of the sunrise on the lake...and back to watching this beautiful baby eat her mother's famous French Toast recipe yesterday morning.

Then it was off to Target. I cannot come into the city with out a trip to Target.  It was there I found the Tinkerbelle tyke bike for a two year old. Our Tink comes close to two... so it was a no brainer on sale. Pictures will follow this next week.

Today I am up way way early.  We have to leave here around six to drive to the VW dealership in Richardson TX to drop off our car and pray they will have time to get to the compressor.  

 Abundance in His grace to you this day.  Look around you and mediate on the glory He has provided to nourish you.

I absolutely love today's painting and the photo of your Tink is so cute.
I had to play catch-up with your blog as we had family in from out of town this weekend so I took no time for the computer.
What is with the hunderd+ degree temps in Texas? Here it is expected but not there. I hope you all get relief soon.
Stay cool...love you..

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 ...
