I've spent all of 2024 studying the Met Gala and I just saw a really misguided take that I want to correct.

From the beginning The Met Gala has been a publicity event and a corporate event. The modern Met Gala red carpet is about advertising. Everyone there is trying to sell you or the other people there something. A brand, their movie, their makeup, or just keep your attention. The best equivalence I have been able to come up with is Superbowl ads (pop culture moments but also just ads). Just because it is photographed not filmed does not undo that it is a media event.

Just because the Met Gala raises funds for a museum does not mean it is morally good. The money that funds the costume institute is often from really alarming places such as the Blackstone group ,Facebook/Meta , Morgan Stanley , Apple, and always Conde Nast (Anna Wintour's name is on the building).

The Met Gala is heavily curated to only present artistic interpretations on the theme that fit with the hegemonic ideals of the fashion industry, Vogue, and the Met.

Here is Robert Orsi's essay on the 2018 Heavenly Bodies exhibit and how it suppresses certain narratives.

The wealth shown at this event should be highly criticized. Each $75,000 ticket for 2024 could fund evacuation for 8+ people from Gaza.

All reporting on this year's gala (except what was posted by U.S Vogue) misidentified Muslim model Ugbad Abdi as Hanani Taylor the night of.

The event is a racist show of wealth designed to capture the public's attention. If you cared about the funding of the costume institute it should bother you more that the museum it is a part of refuses to fund it, not that people are questioning the power at play.

With all the news coming out regarding the casting for the Ari and Dante movie (which is filming...literally, right now as I make this post), I wanted to make a rough compilation of (roughly) who seems to be playing what characters from what I've been able to discern:

(Tumblr crop is being annoying so idk you may have to tap on the image to get the full thing)

Veronica Falcón and Eugenio Derbez as Ari's parents - Liliana and Jaime Mendoza

Kevin Alejandro and Eva Longoria as Dante's parents - Soledad and Sam Quintana

Isabella Gomez as Gina Navarro and Hanani Taylor as Susie Byrd; plus Luna Blaise as Illeana

And finally, Max Pelayo and Reese Gonzales as our Ari and Dante, here's one of our first looks at them together ✨

When Dreams Get in the Way

When I was 10, I had this Relient K album. While listening to it, I chose to look on the back of it. Sure enough, I read "recorded in Nashville, TN". After that, I looked at other albums and they were all recorded in Nashville.

One day, I learned about Nashville and I fell in love. Ever since that day, that city has been my dream.

I remember the first time I visited. "It's real" I kept saying, as if I thought it was just a magical land far far away that no one knew about. But it was. It was real and it was a magical experience. Who wouldn't love spending hours gawking over musical history, seeing a Taylor Swift exhibit, hearing live music on the streets or sitting at Elvis Presley's old piano on music row. It was beautiful and it was a trip I would always remember.

Fast-forward a few years, I had a bigger dream. I didn't want to visit it, I wanted to live there. Who wouldn't? When you love music like I do, Nashville is the destination. I applied for an internship in 2014. I got it and I had made plans to move there. To say I was excited would be an understatement.  I was thrilled. My dream was coming true, so I thought.  I went, I saw the city, I made plans and I even posted on Facebook that I had made the move.. finally. But plans don't always work out like we think. I say that because God had a different plan.

I found myself traveling home a week later. As I entered the driveway, the crying came and my heart was torn in two. It was broken; completely shattered. It took so long to get over it. Every day, I questioned and I cried out to the Lord asking why he gave me Nashville and then took it away. It was a rough season. But I grew and I tried again. But God closed the door and he gave me Georgia. And so I went.

I had been better surrendering Nashville to the Lord. I was doing better. I went so many times during my time in Georgia. I fell in love so much more. But God, in the most kind way kept telling me: "wait. Just wait ". So, I waited, and waited some more.

After awhile, I had realized that maybe I had a different dream for now. Maybe my heart wasn't entirely into Nashville. But the desire still came and I still longed to be there. But God kept whispering "wait".

Wait...

Wait some more ...

Keep waiting....

And now I'm here. It's 2 am and I'm sitting up writing this, knowing that I have to stop holding on and I have to let go. I have to surrender....

//

Let's talk about Nehemiah for a minute.

The words of Nehemiah the son of Hacaliah. Now it happened in the month of Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Susa the citadel, 2 that Hanani, one of my brothers, came with certain men from Judah. And I asked them concerning the Jews who escaped, who had survived the exile, and concerning Jerusalem.3 And they said to me, “The remnant there in the province who had survived the exile is in great trouble and shame. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates are destroyed by fire.” 4 As soon as I heard these words I sat down and wept and mourned for days, and I continued fasting and praying before the God of heaven. 5 And I said, “O Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, 6 let your ear be attentive and your eyes open, to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants, confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned against you. Even I and my father's house have sinned. 7 We have acted very corruptly against you and have not kept the commandments, the statutes, and the rules that you commanded your servant Moses. 8 Remember the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the peoples, 9 but if you return to me and keep my commandments and do them, though your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there I will gather them and bring them to the place that I have chosen, to make my name dwell there.’ 10 They are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand. 11 O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” -Nehemiah 1:1-11

The cool thing about Nehemiah is that he came to the Lord and he asked for direction. He wanted to go where the Lord was leading him, and so he asked. He was intentional to pray and seek answers. He studied the situation and circumstances and humbled himself before the Lord. He was faithful to draw near to God, surrendering it all to Him.

While reading this during my bible study I was asked this question: what's getting in the way of you asking the Lord for direction? Have you been unwilling to consider God’s plan? And it hit me like a ton of bricks. I knew what it was  I knew it was getting in the way. Maybe it's always been in the way. I kew whether or not I was willing or unwilling. I knew what God was telling me.

Dreams. Hopes. Desires.

We all have them. We all want them to come true. We want. We want. We want. We long for it We put everything else on the back burner because it might interrupt our plans and our dreams. Our dreams and our desires are something that gets in the way.. a lot.

A lot of times, what we want always gets in the way of our relationship with God, and it often makes us unwilling to consider His plan for us.

Do you  want what God wants? Are you considering His plan or your own plan?

  Nehemiah prayed. Have you prayed? Have I prayed?

Honestly, I’m preaching to the choir as I write this. I’ve seen in so many circumstances how Nashville and my dreams have gotten in the way of what the Lord might have for me. But here’s the thing, it doesn’t have to stay that way for you or I. We can fix what’s getting in the way.

Our God is sovereign. He doesn’t need to be figured out. But those who seek Him will  find him. He is glorified when we surrender our lives and our dreams to Him. He wants to guide you. He wants you, me, us to surrender.

Are your dreams and hopes and desires getting in the way of where God might be leading you?

Find to time to spend with Him. Draw near to Him. Stay with Him. Live in obedience and humble yourself before Him. I have to do this too. No matter what you’re facing right now, God is faithful. He is the safest place for you and I.

  Seek Him for wisdom and guidance. Surrender to Him. I know it’s hard. That word is hard to hear but it’s good. It’s freeing. Let God take direction for your life. His plan is much better than your plan will ever be.

Let Him take the wheel. Let Him you. I promise that even if you take a wrong turn, He’ll turn you around. He always does and He always will. He loves you. Don’t let your hopes, wants and desires get in the way of a beautiful plan God has for you.

Surrender. Trust. Obey And when you are feeling like He is leading you, don’t just sit there. Go. Do it. Do what He is calling you to do.

“You are safe and you lead us to your heart” – Kari Jobe

“True surrender will always go beyond natural devotion. If we will only give up, God will surrender Himself to embrace all those around us and will meet their needs, which were created by our surrender. Beware of stopping anywhere short of total surrender to God. Most of us have only a vision of what this really means, but have never truly experienced it. “– My Utmost for His Highest

╔══🐝 THE HONEYCOMB🐝══╗ Today's honey🍯 May 17, 2017 Are you asking questions? 🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾 A cupbearer was one who tasted the King's meals before he ate. The position was highly valued because the King's life depended on it. You could liken the cupbearer to the King's trusted confidante. Nehemiah was a cupbearer to King Ataxerxes in a foreign land. In all his Glory, Nehemiah asked a question that changed his life forever. Nehemiah writes... "Hanani, one of my brethren, came, he and certain men of Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews that had escaped, which were left of the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem" (Nehemiah 1:2 KJV). He asked about the state of the Israelites and Jerusalem. The answer he received brought him to tears and eventually his knees. Nehemiah later rebuilt Israel. But what if he never asked? What if the Disciples never asked Jesus how to pray? What if the disciples never asked Jesus any questions? Our life is defined by the questions we are asking. According to Bible researcher Taylor Holmes, Jesus answered 113 questions. 52 of those came from Jesus himself. 25 of those questions came from the disciples. Jesus taught by asking and answering questions. As you read your Bible ask questions, as you reign in life ask questions. A disciple is a learner. Your questions reveal your intellect. Further Studies: Matthew 22; Nehemiah 1; John 3; Luke 20. ______________________________________________________________________________________ THE HONEYCOMB© Bless a life by sharing http://www.instagram.com/de_honeycomb
