Pearls of Wisdom

"I did the best that I knew how to do at the time. When I knew better, I did better."  Jan Wenstrand   

When visiting with Jan we spent time catching up on the past few months. She is such a dear faith based friend and so helpful with me staying focused.  At the point I was being miserable about what might be...and what was...she told me to focus on the words above. I felt such relief as I rolled those thoughts through my mind... and felt such an uplifting that I wanted to share her wisdom.

Living life the best we can with prayer, discernment, discretion and thought... and giving to Him what we cannot do is the the best way. Then realizing it is only through making mistakes that we grow stronger and wiser.


Laurie          

Proverbs 3:21
"My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight, preserve sound judgment and discretion"

We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
