God’s purposes are often veiled in mystery; they are incomprehensible to finite minds; but He who sees the end from the beginning knows better than we. What we need is to cleanse us from earthliness, to perfect our Christian character, that the robe of Christ’s righteousness shall be put upon us…. Faith, patience, forbearance, heavenly-mindedness,Continue reading “Purposes veiled in mystery”

Sick-day Sabbath
By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, I am anti-social and sick. I feel better than I did last night. I hope this is as bad as it gets, because believe me, at school the last two rows of my property class are like the cloud of death. Everyone sneezing and coughing. I have been taking weird concoctionsContinue reading “Sick-day Sabbath”
It came upon the midnight clear
By: Gabriela Yareliz This may be a bit cryptic and philosophical, but I will share anyway. (And now worries, it has nothing to do with my fabulous law school.) I think everyone has something that tries to trap them. Something that has been a part of one’s plan or hope maybe one’s entire life; whetherContinue reading “It came upon the midnight clear”

I look like some random gypsy today with a scarf around my head–I think I scared the Subway guy. Poor fellow.Continue reading “Unknown”

Sometimes we feel disappointed because our plans don’t align with God’s plans. I heard a speaker at Advent Hope talk about how we need to takeContinue reading “Great Expectations”

Changing the hand of God
Recounted conversation by: Gabriela Yareliz The hand of God is one that cannot be hindered. In ways that is very comforting. His plan will happen; God does not lie. In a moment of faltering faith, I expressed the opinion that what will happen will happen, could I really change the future? My mother then remindedContinue reading “Changing the hand of God”
Quotations
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s fascinating to me the power words in between a set of quotation marks can have. God made me stumble upon some quotes that I needed today. Coincidence, I think not. Maybe I didn’t stumble upon them, but instead He is keeping His promise that when we seek Him, we will findContinue reading “Quotations”
