“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”

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”
A Betting Person
“Faith is not being sure. It is not being sure, but betting with your last cent.” Mary Jean Irion By: Gabriela Yareliz Life is brimming with uncertainty. So, faith is one of the ways available to us to deal with the unavoidable uncertainty. It’s the way God asks us to handle the uncertainty ahead. IContinue reading “A Betting Person”
A Call to Prayer
By: Gabriela Yareliz At first, I had prepared this as a piece to a post I was going to have go live earlier, but this merits its own post and many more.

The theme has been aboutContinue reading “The Essential for the Pilgrimage”

I ran out like a lunatic, and as I made my way to the train station, I heard music. It wasContinue reading “Mobile Vibe Shifter”
Father
By: Gabriela Yareliz Alex Ikonn asked Asma Khan how she became a confident and secure woman filled with so much love; how she grew to have self-love. Her answer moved me. She said, “I believed my father.” No matter who your father is/was, what I find comforting is we have a Heavenly Father who hasContinue reading “Father”
True Love
By: Gabriela Yareliz There is an elderly Asian couple that rides the morning train with me. The man has a walker with wheels that turns into a seat. He moves slowly. His wife always holds him firmly but gently, and sometimes, kisses his face under his baseball cap. Her arm is always around him. IContinue reading “True Love”
One Does Not Hold Truth
By: Gabriela Yareliz In recent times, I have noticed an interesting push for the Catholic Church that wasn’t as evident before. I think it’s important to spot these things and observe them. They are cultural moments of significance. It draws the question— where did this flow from? This post is not so much a criticismContinue reading “One Does Not Hold Truth”
