Inner Peace

Some how this morning my inner peace is a bit stressed. For some reason on my big Mac in the study, I cannot load images onto my blog. I can do it with my laptop, but there is no fun or gain in doing that everyday working off two computers. It will grow old.  Why does it all work on the lap top and not on the big Mac?

The next thing that shakes my inner peace is my Mac Mail. talk about scrambled eggs. My new incoming mail appears in my trash mail on my mac. I have to watch both places now. This occurred this weekend after I cleaned out 15mb of email.  Wish I knew but I do not.

After much searching on the Mac Forum I did receive some positive suggestions and I have gone back in and adjusted a few things... so I am praying for a fix this morning.

True Inner Peace will be restored by simple silence and reconnecting to God and his steady assurance. A good mantra would be "Be Still, and know that I am God." By disconnecting from the outside world,  you gain strength for from the quiet of God's presence. Trusting in Him you realize instantly that the 'stuff' happening in the outside world is no longer important. What is important is trusting in Him brings peace to you. Aligning yourself with His higher power brings this inner peace.

Now I will also share I have joined the CLUB 47 challenge from Kimberly Conrad. She has committed to lose 47 pounds in 47 weeks and to sell 47 paintings for $47 and donate $4.70 to breast cancer research.   My challenge for myself is 100 minutes of exercise a week for 10 weeks,  try to loose my last 10 pounds in the next 10 months (remember I have taken off 18-20 lbs since last August), Donate 10% of the sales of my $125 paintings to Alzheimers Research.  I will figure out a way in the blog on the side to monitor my progress.  This may have to be a full artist CFAI project.

INNER PEACE....God will guide me through this as I begin this day.

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 ...
