To the Sea by Laurie Pace

Racing the storms through the waves...LOVE painting this one. Maybe I should do another sailing painting!

"Day is ended, dim my eyes, But journey long before me lies. Farewell, friends! I hear the call. The ship's beside the stony wall. Foam is white and waves are grey; Beyond the sunset leads my way. Foam is salt, the wind is free; I hear the rising of the Sea." J.J. Tolkien 

 Sailing in a storm on the water would seem scary...but we know Jesus actually walked on water.  He invited Peter, one of the Disciples, to follow him on the water.  As Peter stepped out of the boat his eyes were on Jesus and he took quite a few successful steps. As soon as he took his eye off Jesus, and saw the rising wind and waves... he began to sink. Immediately Jesus came to him, grabbing him before he went under the rolling sea and said,"Ye of little faith". 

 Why do we forget to keep our eyes on Jesus in the rough times and rough seas we encounter in our lives. If we are surrendered to him, it means leaving the fears and worries with him. We cannot fail if we do that. No matter what the journey is, HE is with each of us. He will never leave us or forsake us. His unfailing love comforts us. 

“In repentance and rest I am save, in quietness and truth is my strength." Isaiah 30:15

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 ...
