Lift My Life Up, By: Unspoken

“Lift My Life Up”

You brought me this far so why would I question You now
You have provided so why would I start to doubt
I’ve never been stranded, abandoned or left here to fight alone
So I’m giving You control

I lift my life, lift my life up
I give it all in surrender
I lift my heart, lift my heart up
You can have it forever
All my dreams, all my plans
Lord I leave it in Your hands
I lift my life, lift my life up

Have Your way in me
Have Your way in me

If peace is a river then let it sweep over me
If I’m under fire I know it’s refining me
When I hear You calling out I follow now wherever the road may go
I know You’re leading me home

Take my life and let it be all for You

Weird News

1] Primaries for the Democratic Candidate for the Mayoral Race in NYC (Sept. 10)
Looks like De Blasio is in the lead. He flaked on the Q & A, and the event was canceled at the church last week. Still, he seems to be one of the best options out there. We’ll see what happens. I think Anthony Weiner’s campaign has been really fascinating to watch as well.

2] One of Europe’s Power Couples Broken
Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel separate after 14 years together. 😦 I feel for their daughters.

New York City: Vintage French Carnival, ‘Fête Paradiso’

By: Gabriela Yareliz

I was so blessed to be able to pay a visit to Governors Island. Fête Paradiso, a vintage French carnival, has been running on the island since the end of July, and it will go until the last weekend of September. We had a nice time. The island is stunningly quiet compared to the hustle of the city. It was a beautiful, sunny, breezy day. Some of the rides are more than 100 years old. Rumor has it, some of the rides were ridden by famous French poets, so, we rode on seats warmed by poets of the past.

This Week’s Picks: September 8, 2013

Helloooooooo mis amigos!
New week. Fresh start.
The weather has been getting cooler. It probably dropped fifteen degrees steady since last week. Autumn is coming full speed ahead. This week will be a busy one for many. we are still drowsily trying to get back in the swing of things. Despite the constant commotion, find your quiet moments; find time for yourself, for God, and stay inspired.

1] It stands forever

Sometimes, something may seem like a detour in your life, but really, you are exactly where God wants you to be.

5] Unbelievable facts About Every U.S. President
It’s fun to watch, plus you learn. I like Brett and Link.

Have an amazing week. Enjoy the weather, and go full speed ahead…

Recipe to have a life

By: Gabriela Yareliz

My motto: Law school (or any school or work for that matter) is a part of my life, it is not my life.

I think how you live your life depends on how you think of your life and what you want for yourself. It’s a conscious decision. If you don’t make it, then life will spiral out of control and things and circumstances will control you.

Life is too short to not enjoy the sunshine and beauty around us.

Here is my best advice, which I will try to follow again as this year commences:

1] Stay connected to God: This gives so much perspective.
