“Do I love you? My God, if your love were a grain of sand, mine would be a universe of beaches.” William Goldman  The Princess Bride

We hear the words, GOD IS LOVE... but do we accept it with an open heart and hands? Do you believe it?  Aren't most of us wanting acceptance and love? What could you do on a universe of beaches all filled with God's love?  His love is overpowering. 

ALL WE NEED IS LOVE:

  • God's love is steadfast and unchanging.
  • We can trust in God's love.
  • We can rest in God's love.
  • God's love is revealed to us through Jesus Christ
  • Our salvation is an expression of God's Love.
  • God's love is poured into us through the Holy Spirit
  • Our ability to love is enabled through God's love.
  • God's love compels us to love one another.
  • We can have confidence in God's love.
We need to remind ourselves daily, and throughout the day and evening, that God is pure and total Love. So often we doubt the love of God because of experiences in our lives. Broken relationships, hurts from others that we thought loved us, some of our own bad choices in life... all can leave us with a negative feeling of being unworthy of love... human or God's. 

I am more of a tree mountain water girl... but I have to say, standing on the beach watching the sun rise or sun set, depending on Atlantic or Pacific,  the pure power of God can be seen and felt in the rise and fall of the ocean... and in the majesty of the colors in the sky. It is here you can actually feel his presence of power and love. 


"The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing." Zephaniah 3:17

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. 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...
