The fight
By: Gabriela Yareliz I have had this on my mind recently: What is life really about, if not being a reflection of God’s love, character and image? Life is a battlefield (no, not a Pat Benatar reference). As we grow in our characters with God’s power and help, we must fight our own natures andContinue reading “The fight”
Your Future
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, we are afraid of what the future holds. We are usually afraid of things we don’t understand or things we can’t control. Uncertainty. It’s a scary thing. A lot of us like to feel like we are in control of something. It’s that desire to control that sometimes stops us fromContinue reading “Your Future”
About your nickel–
From Destiny, by Dr. Tony Evans, pg. 140 “A little girl came to her father one day and said, ‘Daddy, you promised to give me a nickel.’ Her father had promised her.

Counsel
By: Ellen G. White, Testimonies to the Church, vol. 2 “There is One to whom you can go for counsel, whose wisdom is infinite. He has invited you to come to Him, for He will supply your need. If by faith you cast all your care upon Him who marks the falling of a sparrow,Continue reading “Counsel”

Provision requires pre-vision. “It’s when He [God] sees, that He provides.” “Could it be you’ve been waiting for five years for something GodContinue reading “The Lord will provide”

You Belong to Me
“So I went on writing. The story was writing itself and I was having a hard time keeping up with it. […]I’ve seen you, beauty, and you belong to me now, whoever you are waiting for and if I never see you again, I thought. You belong to me and all of Paris belongs toContinue reading “You Belong to Me”

Whether it’s a school project, trying to break a bad habit or simply making changes in our lives. Apparently, some waterContinue reading “Restored in Victory”
Walking in step
By: Gabriela Yareliz We often think about genuineness. We think about and try to define true success, true beauty, true fashion, true love, true art, true fame, true athleticism, and even how true the weather prediction will be for the next day. Sometimes, I think we worry about the genuineness of things and concepts thatContinue reading “Walking in step”
