Colossians 3:17 “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.”    

 Before I went to bed last night, I had a back and forth conversation in my head seeking wise counsel and debating where to reach out.  When you are lost, alone and filled with stress... where? In my pea brain I am thinking I will wait until morning and research things for women and faith, for weakness, for loss etc  but that did not happen. What happened was a tab I had open on my ipad was to listen to John MacArthur from Grace to You Church in California. It is a sister church to Countryside Bible where we attend.  I have read and owned many of John MacArthurs books but never connected him to the real life he has lived here on earth. If you do not know him as an author, I highly recommend you known him as a man and his journey serving others.  It was here at the Grace to You Church website I found  his most recent message. He has been confronted with many stressful heath situations and had not lead as a pastor the service at Grace in quite a few months. The last one listed on the site was Nov 24th of 2024.  It was for me... and it might be for you. Listen or read it here. 

Have you ever in your mind been thankful for trials...The really bad life and death ones ... those life changing, gut wrenching trials? Not sure if I will ever share what we have faced as a family, but after spending time listening while reading Pastor MacArthur's words in his lesson this morning at 5am through 6 am, my eyes and heart are open. The pain is not gone, but the true realization of where my heart is has been adjusted to realize giving thanks for this horrendous trial is the only way through it with the Lord at my side. Easy to type this morning, still needing meditation and prayer, but a peace is in my heart and my brain will catch up soon.  

I pray this brings answers to some of you in trials that read my blog. Blessings, Elle

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 Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'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...
