By: Gabriela Yareliz Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. What does this time remind us of? Even when we are confused, God is doing His thing. Our confusion doesn’t mean a plan is halted.

Some Thursday Inspiration
“Time is a liar. Stop letting the calendar tell you what’s possible. It doesn’t know who you are. It has no clue what’s still alive for you. Culture measures age in years. It tells us to grow older and grow up. To be reasonable. To trade aliveness for safety. But maturity is not measured byContinue reading “Some Thursday Inspiration”
I Was Pulled By An Angel In Times Square (Of All Places— I Know)
By: Gabriela Yareliz I am pretty sure I met my guardian angel today. It was a commute like any other. Kindle in hand, and noise everywhere. My train was four minutes away.

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.

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.
