By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday! Below-zero temperatures, snow and readings, oh my! Here we are. Just two weeks shy of saying goodbye to this red-heart themed month. I hope you have Presidents Day off. Apparently, the whole city is closed today, except the law school, of course. Time to brave the cold, brave the books,Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: February 16, 2015”

Sunday Girl: February 15, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz I like to find out what things mean. Curiosity…I should have been a cat? Kidding. It’s like the time I didn’t know what pound cake meant. It turns out that pound cake takes a pound of each ingredient (flour, butter, eggs and sugar). Apparently, the expression “Life is your oyster,” means: Oysters have aContinue reading “Sunday Girl: February 15, 2015”
Remembering Thursday: February 12, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz It really was a Goliath of a Wednesday. Life changes in an instant. Today, some walked in victory like David before Goliath; others sat innocently in a prison of life as Joseph once did before God fulfilled his dreams; others were in pain surrendering their greatest blessing in order to reap theContinue reading “Remembering Thursday: February 12, 2015”
Wednesday Musings: February 11, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello fellow survivors of this world. I hope your week is going splendidly. This week, I have been so impressed with how God orchestrates paths to cross for people to help each other. It’s weird how in a person’s most desperate time, he or she might stumble upon another who wants to walk alongsideContinue reading “Wednesday Musings: February 11, 2015”

By: Gabriela Yareliz Greetings! It’s a Wintry-Mix Sunday/Monday. Let’s get pumped for an awesome week! Ready? “They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds.” Mexican Proverb “If you wear the wrong glasses, you won’t see things correctly.” Dr. Tony Evans “Yet one thing secures us whatever betide, the scriptures assure us thatContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: February 9, 2015”
If You Are Going To Shop…
“For you say I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing, not realizing that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of yourContinue reading “If You Are Going To Shop…”
Wednesday Musings: February 4, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz So, Wednesday just about killed us all here. What a day. It has been a day of exhaustion, true brain power and learning. I needed to take a minute and just breathe. “You’ve been invited to taste & see. Don’t be satisfied to just believe & agree.” LB, To Taste & See “JesusContinue reading “Wednesday Musings: February 4, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #7

Lewis, Mere Christianity By: Gabriela Yareliz I finished the book of Deuteronomy today. I finished the books of the law. As I continue to journey on through scripture, I am studyingContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #7”
When the Struggle Gets Real: January 29, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Reading through the Old Testament has been such a treat. I am only in the book of Deuteronomy (still sticking to my 90-day challenge), and truly, it’s amazing how the Bible is a fountain in which one can find new things and learn, no matter how many times you have read certainContinue reading “When the Struggle Gets Real: January 29, 2015”
