Bus Stop

By: Gabriela Yareliz Last night, I was talking to Feliz as she was driving home. We were having our classic drive-home convo, when she saw a girl at a bus stop. “Keep her warm, Lord!” Feliz exclaimed into the phone. When she kept driving, Feliz said, “Oh, the bus is right there. It’s right aroundContinue reading “Bus Stop”

Eyes on You

By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, I was studying the passage in 2 Chronicles 20, when Jehoshaphat receives news that there are armies coming to kill him and take the kingdom of Judah. In verse 2 he was told, “A vast army is coming against you from Edom…” We often receive this kind of warning in our lives, whetherContinue reading “Eyes on You”

“To heal is to touch with love that which was previously touched by fear.” Stephen Levine By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy week to all of you, my fellow cold survivors.

Reflections Before Bedtime #69

We’ll celebrate a football player who body slams another, but he couldContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #69”

Monday Inspiration: February 8, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz I am sick, guys. I know. Totally sucks. I am on meds, and I have no voice. It’s an issue when a big part of your job is talking. Monday.

Friday Glee: February 5, 2016

Hi friends, Today, we explore snowy tragedies, what’s in an age (is it really nothing but a number?), questioning what it means to be really “grown up”, the political scene, breakups, languages, and maybe more– you know, if we get to it. Most of you aren’t from the U.S.; I love looking at my readerContinue reading “Friday Glee: February 5, 2016”
