I’m not gonna have access to the internet while I’m in Fresno so I thought I would leave you with this. It’s good stuff…
Getting Out of My Box December 27, 2007
Posted by Joseph Garibay in Books, Spiritual Growth.1 comment so far
I’m not one to step out of my box. I don’t mean to be that way either. But I’m starting to realize that if I want to speak into people’s lives while being effective at the same time, there’s a prerequisite. It’s called stepping out of my box.
Some people view me as having a ‘Black & White’ mentality. The more I think about it, I can’t argue with that statement. Why am I saying this? Because it’s true. As I continue to mature, I’m learning that I need to open my mind to those around me. Not to judge them, nor to condemn them, but to build a bridge that will lead to a relationship inevitably leading to my heart. (more…)
No Greater Love December 26, 2007

I wanted to get out of the house the other night. I ended up in Barnes & Noble. I came to the conclusion that Barnes & Noble is the only thing in Antioch that reminds me of Portland. So off I went…
I had my heart set on buying something but I wasn’t sure what. I knew Christmas was just a few days away so the chances of me getting a gift certificate to a bookstore were pretty good. I got one too!
I always feel overwhelmed in a bookstore. I come across so many books I’d love to read and often find myself asking the question, “Which book will it be today?” This time was no different…
As I was walking through the store I came across a book entitled No Greater Love by Mother Teresa. Having heard a lot of great things about her, I decided to take a look. It only took one paragraph to convince me that I needed to read this book… (more…)

Okay so I’m really not in love, but I did watch Elf today! Such a good movie. I hope all of you guys had a great Christmas! Everything is going great down here in California. I’m lovin the time with the family and it’s been great running into so many old faces.
Now that the important family time is out of the way, I’ll be doing some traveling next week to visit some extended family. I haven’t seen this part of my family in a very long time! It’s a good time waiting to happen.
Anyway, I’m off to enjoy all of my wonderful gifts. I think I was on Santa’s ‘good boy’ list this year!
Merry Christmas everyone…
Can you say Heisman? December 8, 2007

Tebow made history today by becoming the first Sophomore to win the Hesiman Trophy award. What a Beast! Based off his season’s accomplishments, he without a doubt deserves this award.
Even though he’s a beast on the football field, he still finds time to play Goliath in his church’s Children’s Music Festival
What a guy…
Through December 7, 2007

This last semester in a nut-shell…
Through confession I found freedom,
Through humility I found grace,
Through condemnation I found strength,
Through You I found my identity.
Through tears I found joy,
Through time I found the truth,
Through censure I found patience,
Through You I found peace.
Through correction I found integrity,
Through blunder I found wisdom,
Through perseverance I found vision,
Through it all, I’m closer to You…
Now we wait… December 5, 2007
