IN TO ME SEE

The Circle of Intimacy
("in to me see")
We individually seek aceptance
Longing for moment filled with expressions of love and tenderness.
This is a special time for closeness and life sharing,
Yet we all realize the closer we become
The more vulnerable we become
With a greater risk of exposure and pain.
Our souls take to life in a dance
Connected through the threads of time
Intricately weaving the beautiful colors of each of our souls
In gentle movements 
To implicate a union of harmonious spirits.
A Circle of friends
To share this journey
Is a great gift of intimacy.
Growing old and walking side by side
Facing the world together
We are stronger.
We have each other
And we are never alone against the wall
Waiting for someone to ask us to dance.

This poem was written in honor of our friendships with several people... and the journey we had made and the joy we found in all of us coming together. There was beauty in the trust and love as we shared our lives. The poem is perhaps not one of my best but when emailing on Sunday it came up in conversation. I had it saved but in a publisher file. Stacey was able to change it to a word document for me to share. The deepest relationship you can have is that of one with the Lord.  He sees in your heart and mind even before you have a conscious thought. He knows what you will do and say even before you do.  He sees all of you and He knows all of you intimately.  What exactly do you know about Him? What is your part in this relationship... if God were to say "In To Me See" what do you see in God?

    John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.

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 ...
