"If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If he had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning... Face it, Friend. He is crazy about you!"  Max Lucado 

 So much to say on this subject... recognizing all the wonderful things... the amazing things we have in our lives to be thankful for and often we are worried about the things we do not have. God literally provides us all with so much beauty, good, people in our lives, and always His love and His peace and light and grace... 

 We seem to be overrun with Amazon, Itunes, video games and other junk out there, to take our eye off the ultimate love and grace of our Father. Give thanks today for what you do have. Did you see the morning sunrise?  Are there flowers or trees around you in their cycle of winter waiting for spring? Do you have a special someone? A friend? Family?  

 This painting was painted for a man in Indiana that had lost his wife to cancer.  He mourned her death for years after she died. They had built a new home right about the time she was diagnosed, and he commissioned this painting for the entry hall in the home. I had painted one similar years ago and she tried to buy it, but it was gone.  She kept a printed image of it on her desk as it reminded her of she and her sister.  This was one of the most precious commissions I have painted. 

 Luke 2:40  "And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him."

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 ...
