Rich

Mindful News is right— we are rich. We lead a charmed life. “My hot water works on a dime, my a/c works when I need it too, I can go to any grocery store and purchase what I please to eat, I have a clean kitchen to cook in, I have a clean shower toContinue reading “Rich”

On the Other Side of the Trade

By: Gabriela Yareliz Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba (former Rangers Captain) were welcomed back into MSG, as they arrived to play against (and slay) their former team (the NY Rangers) with the Anaheim Ducks. These two trades were among the most controversial, in recent time, steeped in drama from the players to the fans. TheContinue reading “On the Other Side of the Trade”

The Seeker is Honored

“When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.” Matthew 2:10 By: Gabriela Yareliz There are many narratives to the holiday season. There are different focal points, and reminders along the way. I believe those points of focus reveal a lot about those who celebrate and the values they cherish. We internalize theseContinue reading “The Seeker is Honored”

Surface Level

“Any major life rupture reveals who was never built for the terrain ahead […] when you discover that half the people you thought were ride or dies weren’t even ride or die adjacent, don’t waste time being sad about it. Those people could not have supported you much longer anyway. They maxed out their capacityContinue reading “Surface Level”

You Keep Your Choice

By: Gabriela Yareliz In a time where discernment is everything (so seeking God’s wisdom is paramount), we decide whether we stay in darkness. Scripture illustrates often how those who choose blindness, darkness, and pride are permitted by God to keep it. If you choose blindness, you will get to stay blind. If you choose toContinue reading “You Keep Your Choice”

Waiting

By: Gabriela Yareliz Waiting has been a theme recently. I think my whole week of Glorify App devotionals were about waiting. Then, I heard the sermon Fourteen, about waiting and the transformation in the journey. We have Christmas coming up, which is filled with much anticipation and waiting. It reminds us we are waiting forContinue reading “Waiting”

AF’s America

“There’s something I want you to remember today… America isn’t great because it’s easy. It’s great because for generations… Men and women have put their heads down, worked their asses off, and built something out of nothing. That’s the America I believe in. The America that rewards effort. The America that values freedom. The AmericaContinue reading “AF’s America”

A Dash of Anticipation

By: Gabriela Yareliz I am on a ghost train. A ghost train is one that does not appear on any of the apps and systems. The train that arrives and confuses all platformed passengers when the board says the next train arrives in 14 minutes. The board tells you delays. Reality tells you it hasContinue reading “A Dash of Anticipation”

Maximum Tilt

By: Gabriela Yareliz We have reached our “maximum tilt away from the sun,” my almanac tells me for the month of December. I tuck the ribbon bookmark into our last month. There is a soft tap-tap on the window of rain mixed with some sort of sleet because it sounds harder than just rain. It’sContinue reading “Maximum Tilt”
