By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, Elie Wiesel passed away, at the age of 87. Most of us remember his memoirs and the Night Trilogy. That death march in the book Night is one that few forget. I have been fascinated by Wiesel’s writing and thoughts on religion. Being a survivor of the Holocaust hints to theContinue reading “The Gates of the Forest”

“Your destiny isn’t the things you’re going to do, it’s the people you’re going to love.” Shawn Bolz By: Gabriela Yareliz I decided to take a quick break from typing up a motion. Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers out there. I can’t believe the summer is evaporating this quickly. MID JUNE PEOPLE. MidContinue reading “Sunday Girl: June 19, 2016”
Sunday Girl/Reflections: June 5, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ll try not to make this a rambling post, but I am just spilling out of my glass right now; overwhelmed with so much– good and bad. I feel it has been a while since I came by these parts. Life has been insanely busy. I feel like I barely sleep, andContinue reading “Sunday Girl/Reflections: June 5, 2016”

“He would not let the fear rise, nor hope falter, nor defeat be entered in his thoughts.” C.S. Lewis // Dymer, Canto 3.17 By: Gabriela Yareliz There is a very real fear that abides in many of us– a fear that He, the Almighty God of the universe may pass us by or not hearContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: May 30, 3016”

“What He desires, that He does.” “For He will complete what He appoints for me, and many such things are in His mind.” (Job 23:13-14)
Thursday Badinage: May 19, 2016
I am stuck in a long line that is not moving. So painful. So, I thought I would catch up on some reading materials. I saw this quote on the lovely Kusha Alagband’s Instagram. “I am not quite sure if I believe in the Law of Attraction. There were things I wanted in my lifeContinue reading “Thursday Badinage: May 19, 2016”
Reflections Before Bedtime #86
By: Gabriela Yareliz I hope we can remember, as Job did, that God’s majesty is unsearchable… “By His power He stilled the sea…” (Job 26:12) Job basically says that as long as we have breath in us, the spirit of God is in our nostrils (Job 27:3). May we hold fast to wisdom and holdContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #86”
A Love That Seeks
By: Gabriela Yareliz This morning, I was reading about how God loves and pursues us. The way He romances our souls and goes after us. “Marriage stands for the creation of unity among two people who were once separated in every way before love reached out and found the other– the way God reached outContinue reading “A Love That Seeks”
Thursday Badinage: May 12, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz God promises, “I will heal your faithlessness.” Jeremiah 3:22 I pray God heals my unbelief and gives me more of the gift of faith. “Behold, we come to You, for You are the Lord our God.” Jeremiah 3:22 His is the honor, the glory, the power. All things are in Him andContinue reading “Thursday Badinage: May 12, 2016”
Reflections Before Bedtime #85
A remix of what is in my brain… Don’t see yourself through the eyes of others. There will be times where others will think you have suffered a great loss, but you are actually winning. And there are moments when you look like you are winning, but you are miserable. Diane von Furstenberg (paraphrase) “ThoseContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #85”
