Reflections Before Bedtime #69

By: Gabriela Yareliz To be. We aren’t talking about “to have” or “to do,” but “to be.” I was talking* with someone recently, and we were discussing how we always celebrate what people do (selectively), but we don’t exactly celebrate who people are. 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. Yesterday, I saw Ravi Zacharias speak at The Brooklyn Tabernacle. That was such a blessing. He spoke particularly on Deuteronomy 8. ItContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: February 8, 2016”

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”

This Week’s Theme

By: Gabriela Yareliz I love that in the face of confusion, uncertainty, disappointment, hopes and desires, God says to us: “[T]hereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.”Continue reading “This Week’s Theme”

Reflections Before Bedtime #68

By: Gabriela Yareliz Not too long ago, I was looking at photos from a movie premiere Leonardo DiCaprio and Clare Danes had in the 1990s. The fashion was terrible. I think there is a whole BuzzFeed article dedicated to the horrendous fashion. I won’t post a photo from the premiere. You’re welcome, Clare Danes.

Monday Inspiration: February 1, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello, my friends. We begin the week and a new month. I am praying that this week, we make our motto: “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might…” (Ecclesiastes 9:10).

Reflections Before Bedtime #67

God did something amazing for a woman today, and I got to be the lucky one to break the good news. When I gave her the good news, she started crying. Sobs of gratitude. I was so moved by this. How many times do we look around and get overwhelmed by all that we have?Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #67”

Happy Week: January 24, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz We are thawing out, my people. The blizzard left us magnificent heaps of white glittery snow. I took a walk around my neighborhood today. Children were making bank. Adolescents were running around with shovels helping neighbors resurrect their cars. Neighbors would then hand them bundles of cash after a job well-done (meaningContinue reading “Happy Week: January 24, 2016”
