What stands firm forver

 "Faith make things possible not easy." 

I just released my sixth tiny healing book " One Way Traffic, grow old young" a few days ago and here I am getting ready to pray for and write my seventh one. Writing tiny healing books is not about me.  It’s about God's amazing purpose bestowed on me and that purpose is all I have to please God. Let the stories of our life glorify God. It's my purpose that guides me throughout my life, most especially the moments when I am confused, failing and unforgiving. Through our purpose, we can overcome all evil with good. Let's focus our hearts, eyes and minds on God alone.

Jesus' ministry is always outside in the community.  Because of our being human, every day we are facing unstoppable challenges that the world keeps throwing at us. These challenges are instrumental for making us all to be future saints. To become Saints- is God's will  for all of us. We don’t have to understand, we just have to trust God and keep His commands and to always be faithful. After all, God’s purpose will prevail in our life.  

In fact, St. Joseph and His Blessed Mother were so worried where their son went when Jesus was still twelve years old. Then after a few days, they found their son in the Temple with the religious scholars. In spite that Jesus was still very young, He understood His purpose and told His Blessed Mother not to worry because He was doing the will of His Father in heaven. Sometimes we have to be a child, and to get lost to find our purpose.

We have to be thankful for every grace we received from God. Grace is freely given, not earned. God created us on purpose, for a purpose. Spiritually, "Purpose involves doing good works that God has prepared, contributing to His kingdom, and glorifying Him through service to others. "

We have to be reminded, that no one amongst us is perfect. We are all sinners and as we get older each day we still have a few opportunities to enjoy, to renew our souls and repent our inequities in the coming days that we are blessed. 

"God's purpose for our life is different than the world's purpose for our life. In the Bible, God's purpose stands firm forever. It's what He has in mind, what He plans and what ultimately pleases Him. [Isaiah 46:10-11]"

This is another beautiful tiny book..

Please keep me in your prayers.

The message of Christmas: Be that light

 An empty manger... The whole Christian world is waiting now for the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Every year we celebrate Christmas to remind us of the birth of Christ.  Jesus made himself one of us. We can see Him in our midst every day... those people and children in need, the old, the frail, and the sick.  Jesus was about to be born but His parents couldn't find a home to even rest for the night. They were not famous people. Everyone must have said no to them, so the Holy Family ended up in a stable instead.  Jesus taught us humility. Yesterday, after we exited from the freeway, an old homeless man was right at our car window as we stopped for the red light to the side road. He was holding his sign as he looked around asking for cash or food. I didn't look at his sign made of a brown card board box, but his eyes met mine. As I bent over to get cash from my purse, the light turned green, and we had to go. As we drove further from the road where that o...

Who are blessed?

  By Marie Tan-Hancock  "Many are called but only a few are chosen." Because not all of us accepted the invitation.  A lot of people are praying in this world but what matters to God is a ❤️ heart that loves Him: a heart that loves the poor in spirit,❤️ a heart that loves His will, and His words. He admires a heart that loves the simplicity of this world and not the material things that blinded us. The Lord emphasizes that many will praise Him only with their lips but their hearts are far from Him. They called them 'hypocrites.'  Jesus came to the world to cause division amongst us: in the family, and in our circle of friends. Jesus said that Himself.  Jesus didn't call people who are intellectual and accomplished to join Him in His ministry but only those who are willing to follow Him. He called the fishermen, a tax collector and even the man who betrayed Him. Let's not judge anyone because we don’t like them, they had a bad past, they are poor and they are ...

PAUSE A BIT

By Marie Tan-Hancock   I just finished writing my sixth book, One Way Traffic ( Grow old young ) then I released it, and I asked myself of what's next. My energy was exploding, whoa.. I thought that was life well spent. But honestly, I was stressing myself too much, and too thin from overdoing everything like there's no tomorrow. I was holding my cellphone checking and rechecking for what's trending and multi tasking night and day while at the same time trying to finish the manuscript to be re-edited over and over again. But in spite of how pre occupied I was, I feel blessed, grateful that I have something to look forward to and to give out from what I love to do and  to share the good what's within me. The ME THAT I AM NOW.  Going back to the first released:  after reviewing the books printed, tsk tsk, my goodness, they were all misprinted. Oh gosh...surely it was disappointing. Then the next reprints were done but there were a few typos. After what happened, I told...
