I am meeting myself coming and going but that is a good thing sometimes. I am excited to be offering some limited edition prints of a few paintings from this year, and Indian Paint Pony is one of those offered at this tremendous price for a 36 x 36 inch painting. #ChristmasCelebration #ContemporaryHorsePainting 
I cannot believe that Christmas is a mere 4 1/2 days away. Then I cannot believe it will be 2019 in less than two weeks.  I am not ready. I still need to buy paints, canvas and supplies for the new year. I am not mentally prepared to close out this year.... and I wonder if Mary and Joseph ever thought, "I am not ready for the birth of this baby...the responsibility of raising God's son."
We should be centered in the celebration of the birth of God's son.  Our minds should be focused on how it all came together with the angels, the shepherds, Mary heavy with baby riding the long journey on a donkey, ... but wait how was Joseph really dealing with all of this? He does not have a 'speaking' part in the Bible, but he has one of the main positions in all of this... his faith was unwavering.   He believed God. He believed the angel; he married Mary knowing she was with child. He walked in God's light and grace as the chosen father for God's son here on earth.  God specifically chose Joseph and Mary to be the parents of this wee baby and bring him up with God's love, following God's laws and setting forth the strong foundation that only parents can provide. Yet, we do not hear much about Joseph in the Bible as Jesus was born, and not anything as he grew... and it was not until Jesus was 12, that we hear about Joseph again. Joseph fulfilled the role of Jesus' earthly father with all the love any man could have for his son.  As his protector, provider and teacher, he raised Jesus with out any reservations. God provided Joseph with all he needed for this role in his son's life. Without wavering, Joseph was granted the needed gifts from God to raise this boy to be our Savior.

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 ...
