One Step At A Time

By: Gabriela Yareliz The problem is we always want the best and most worthy things to come fast. But they don’t come fast; they never do, nor should they. No matter how life seems to break you, even still, it is preparing you for where God wants to take you.

Reflections Before Bedtime #19

By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes in life, we make the mistake of thinking that people will have to come around to respecting and accepting us and our ways of thought.
