Wisdom Personified

Wisdom Speaks Does not wisdom call?     Does not understanding raise her voice? On the heights beside the way,     at the crossroads she takes her stand; beside the gates in front of the town,     at the entrance of the portals she cries aloud: “To you, O men, I call,     and my cry is to the childrenContinue reading “Wisdom Personified”

What I Believe Is In My Name

By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ve learned that people in life will look at you strange if you don’t exactly go with the flow. I’ve gotten looks and snarky comments. I’ve been laughed at, and I’ve gotten an occasional sigh. Some don’t understand why I do or don’t do certain things, why I believe certain things, why I have a conscience about certain things… WhileContinue reading “What I Believe Is In My Name”

Wednesday Musings: January 21, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Back to reading and studying like a beast. Yep. We are back. Vacation is over, people. The law school is bustling like an ant  pile that has been stepped on. The adrenaline is pumping, the soul is sufficiently sleep-deprived, and the arms are full of 50-pound books. It is a weird feeling,Continue reading “Wednesday Musings: January 21, 2015”

Reflections Before Bedtime #6

By: Gabriela Yareliz Sabbath has been awesome so far. We kicked off the Sabbath hours with the last night of The Grace Tour at the University of Florida. Today, the focus of the talk was Luke 9:23: “And he said to call, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take upContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #6”

Despite the Flaws

By: Gabriela Yareliz In the Bible, we see men and women presented with all of their flaws and beauty; in their darkest moments and in their highest points. Why so? “But seeing where they struggled and fell, where they took heart again and conquered through the grace of God, we are encouraged and led toContinue reading “Despite the Flaws”

2014

So I won’t give up; No, I won’t break down; Sooner than it seems life turns around. And I will be strong, Even if it all goes wrong; When I’m standing in the dark I’ll still believe; Someone’s watching over me. By: Gabriela Yareliz 2014 was a rollercoaster year. For some, it came with bigContinue reading “2014”

Do You Know Him?

He’s the King of the Jews; He’s the King of Israel; He’s the King of Righteousness. He’s the King of the Ages. He’s the King of Heaven. He’s the King of Glory. He’s the King of kings and He’s the Lord of lords. That’s my King. Well, I wonder do you know Him? David said,Continue reading “Do You Know Him?”

Friday Motivation and Glee: December 5, 2014

By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s time to prepare for Sabbath. Friday means cleaning and jamming around my apartment (lots of Fifth Harmony, guys). I just received news that something I worked on with a colleague over the summer was extremely successful, and I am here celebrating that victory and blessing. The feeling you get when you are able to change someone’sContinue reading “Friday Motivation and Glee: December 5, 2014”

That One Thing

By: Gabriela Yareliz Many times, we try to give God a lot of things in our lives and different parts of us. We also hold some things back. What is it that God wants from us? “O my son, give me your heart. May your eyes take delight in following my ways.” Proverbs 23:26 WhenContinue reading “That One Thing”
