By: Gabriela Yareliz Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba (former Rangers Captain) were welcomed back into MSG, as they arrived to play against (and slay) their former team (the NY Rangers) with the Anaheim Ducks. These two trades were among the most controversial, in recent time, steeped in drama from the players to the fans. TheContinue reading “On the Other Side of the Trade”

The Seeker is Honored
“When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.” Matthew 2:10 By: Gabriela Yareliz There are many narratives to the holiday season. There are different focal points, and reminders along the way. I believe those points of focus reveal a lot about those who celebrate and the values they cherish. We internalize theseContinue reading “The Seeker is Honored”
Surface Level
“Any major life rupture reveals who was never built for the terrain ahead […] when you discover that half the people you thought were ride or dies weren’t even ride or die adjacent, don’t waste time being sad about it. Those people could not have supported you much longer anyway. They maxed out their capacityContinue reading “Surface Level”
You Keep Your Choice
By: Gabriela Yareliz In a time where discernment is everything (so seeking God’s wisdom is paramount), we decide whether we stay in darkness. Scripture illustrates often how those who choose blindness, darkness, and pride are permitted by God to keep it. If you choose blindness, you will get to stay blind. If you choose toContinue reading “You Keep Your Choice”
Waiting
By: Gabriela Yareliz Waiting has been a theme recently. I think my whole week of Glorify App devotionals were about waiting. Then, I heard the sermon Fourteen, about waiting and the transformation in the journey. We have Christmas coming up, which is filled with much anticipation and waiting. It reminds us we are waiting forContinue reading “Waiting”
Maximum Tilt
By: Gabriela Yareliz We have reached our “maximum tilt away from the sun,” my almanac tells me for the month of December. I tuck the ribbon bookmark into our last month. There is a soft tap-tap on the window of rain mixed with some sort of sleet because it sounds harder than just rain. It’sContinue reading “Maximum Tilt”
The Real
By: Gabriela Yareliz As the holidays arrive, one thing I know for certain— so many of us crave nostalgic vibes. We crave the safety and comfort of the past. Its simplicity and partnering maximalism. Everything these days feels so minimalistic and beige. It lacks character. Everything ends up looking the same. But we want theContinue reading “The Real”
The Church Cookbook
By; Gabriela Yareliz My new hobby is reading cookbooks. I saw this particularly old one, and it reminded me of the community and church cookbooks of the 70s, 80s and 90s. You know what I am talking about— the spiral bound ones that look like they were typed up on a typewriter. The books compiledContinue reading “The Church Cookbook”
Half-rep Life
Happy Veterans Day to all who have served! It’s a frigid 15F. Winter has announced herself. The cold is weirdly energizing. On this frigid morning— I leave you with wisdom from Arnold Schwarzenegger: “Don’t live a half-rep life. Be fully present. Go all the way in everything you do.” Let’s go!
Ordinary
“Give me ordinary. Give me cups of tea in the backyard and an afternoon so slow I can hear the hummingbirds. Give me time to look at the moon and midday trips to the bookshop. Give me satisfaction with Enough. Give me the same dinner rotation every week, because simple saves energy I’d rather spendContinue reading “Ordinary”
