There Comes a Time

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living."

I tried researching who said this and if you know let me know so I can credit them.  One of my high school friends posted this on Facebook and I loved it.

Are you ready to do this?  Hard to do it with your immediate family...even adult children, but I believe we have to do it to survive and live the way God intends for us to live.  After spending two days with Lady L and watching her move and react to the world around her, I knew that was something I wanted back in my life.  Simplicity, joy, love, focusing on the good and the pleasure of smiling and sharing.   Really appreciating the moments of hugging and smiling and laughing and trying to do more of it.

I pray for you my friends the simply happiness of a child...trusting in the Father to provide. Stay responsible, but look for the good, reaching out and serving others.  Pray for those that seem to attack you or bring negativity to you. Stand clear of the drama queens and the users that suck you dry by their complaints and troubles.  Find happiness in this moment in this day, because tomorrow is no guarantee. If you are down or know someone down, be the one to reach out and help them up.  If it is you that is down... reach out to God.  His arms are there open and waiting.

May abundance be yours...

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 ...
