Heaven in Her Arms

Why God Chose Mary to Raise His Son and What it Means for You
BY:  Catherine Hickem

This book is written in such a way that it can't help but  bring all Mothers and Ladies closer to God.  I must admit one of the very first things I learned is how much Mary is focused on at Christmas time but what about the rest of the Year.  Before One can die they must first be born.  "God wanted His Son, the King of kings, to come from a humble woman so that the entire world could relate."

Ladies, we have a Heavenly Father who loves us so much that He actually restrains Himself on Our Behalfs.  A good example is the Birth Of Jesus .  The timing had to be Perfect and God knew who He wanted to Carry Jesus.  God is very detailed after all He is a God of Perfection.
He has chosen everyone's hair, eyes, color of skin, knit us together in our Mothers womb [ Psalm 139] and chose our birth year.

Ladies it is God who Qualifies each and every one of us.  This book is written in such a way that brings the reader to a closer intimate relationship with Her Heavenly Father.  But the Author takes it one Step further in the reader's Spiritual Journey by adding a Study Guide at the very end.

"Show me a woman who keeps her focus on Christ the Mary did on her God, and I will show you someone who has 20/20 spiritual vision.  This type of sight enabled Mary to maintain passion for her faith, purpose for her life, and a heart for her God.  We see Mary giving God her life to do with as He desires."  "It is an amazing moment when women realize they do not have to live under the limitations of their past or their heritage." 

Needless to say  the book came just in time For Mother's day.  Don't wait for someone to buy You the book. Go ahead Ladies pamper yourself  by purchaisng this book after all you'r worth it.  There really is only one you.   Aww the Wealth of Knowledge, Wisdom that is found with in the pages of this book.

Great Day/ Every Day

Navigating Life's Challenges with Promise and Purpose

Max Lucado is by far one of the gifted authors of all times.  He has a uncanny knack of telling a story and painting it in such a way to where the reader feels like he is having a one on one conversation with the Author over a Cup of Coffee. 

One of my favorite quotes by Max Lucado is: "Saturate your day in JESUS' grace.  Entrust your day to His oversight.  Accept His direction. It's the only prescription to fill your day with God-given purpose."   This book gives the reader a foundational blueprint on how a person can Navigate through Life's Challenges and actually be Overcomer.

  The book is strategically laid out to build a stronger foundation.  It is actually divided into 3 sections.  The first Section is the book itself.  The Second part of the book makes it a Great Small group.  The Third Part of the book is a 30 day devotional.  This book is written with the intent to help every Christ Follower grow in their daily walk.  This book helps the reader to stay focused on God and the advancement of His Kingdom.  Along with strengthens our Attitude. 


This makes a great gift for Birthdays, and  Graduation.

The Year is 2012

The Year is 2012 where Majority of the People live in Microwave Mentality The More technology the better>can't go fast enough, Yet God still speaks to His Sons/Daughters but there is a Key to Hear God God's Child must first position Him/Herself



It requires slowing down spending time with God learning His Precious Voice. Waiting and Listening to His Voice plays Such a Key Role. In fact it is so crucial that it impacts everything and overflows in all areas not to mention A Person's Destiny God wants to Write the Story but His Child must first Let Him and be willing to follow . Jesus Said "Come Follow Me and I will Make You Fishers of Men."


I know in my Car I have a Ceramic fish that only has 1 fin the other is broken to remind me no matter what it is once taken to God He can Use it and turn it into a beautiful Masterpiece. Remember before there was anything There was God. God was, God is, and God Will Always be God

Who or What is Writing Your Story?

Only You Can Answer this

God's Word is Life-changing

When was the last time that you did a  list  wher you  took time to Write down everything that God has done for You?

God's word is Alive & Active and is still speaking to people today.

When was the last time that you spent time in praying just thanking  Your Father for His richness, for His goodnes, for never leaving you, for making You His Son And daughter

In the New testament Jesus  teaches us how to pray.  Our Father  well that tells me I have a Personal Relationship with Him and that He cares about every aspect of my life.

Which Art In Heaven "Hallowed be thy name -- The Word Hallowed means Purify  When was the last time that You asked God to help You see Him the way He wants You to see Him and that Others would see Him In you

You see Friends there is so Much Unconditional Love within this passage

God wants to take you to the next Spiritual Level so why not ask Him  In the Book of James It says "You have not because You Ask not"

May this week me one that You grow closer to God than ever before and Know that nothing can snatch you out of His Hand

Life-Changing Invitation

I AM A FOLLOWER THE WAY, TRUTH, AND LIFE of FOLLOWING JESUS
The Gospel has always been simple.

1.] Jesus is the Leader

2.] We are His followers



One of my favorite quotes from this book is: "On many levels God does not operate without our consent. Even Mary, the mother of Jesus, had to give her consent for Jesus to be born in her. Love came down at Christmas, but for Love to accomplish his purpose in Mary, she had to say yes." "A follower is one who has said yes to being chosen.


This is a book where the Author makes the reader feel like a fellow journeyman where the reader goes from a Leadership to what it means not just to follow Jesus but to follow The Greatest Leader of All.


This book is tailored to bringing the follower closer to His/Her Leader. Great for Small Groups or for reading on your own.

 When a person says Yes to following Jesus they are a part of something bigger than him/herself.

What One Person with Tender Hands and a Gentle Heart did for Mankind

Tender hands -- So loving

Tender hands-  healed so many
Gentle heart -- All Knowing yet Not Judging
Tender hands- Serving us
Gentle heart-  So much to share

Tender Hands- Showed us how to Love
Gentle Heart - always pouring into people yet He knew the Time was Near
Tender Hands - His hands/feet nailed to the Cross for You & For Me
Gentle Heart -  so CRUSHED /He was Seperated from His  Father for the first time -- So Heartbroken  - His heart broken into so many pieces for You and for me

Tender hands -- bore our Pain
Gentle heart --  Said "Father forgive them for the know now what they do."
Tender hands-- Jesus healed again after the Resurrection
Gentle Heart--  Jesus Says "I LOVE YOU so much that I gave every ounce of blood I have for you and now I wait knocking at the door of Your Heart waiting for You . . . .

My/Your Inheritance

MY /YOUR INHERITANCE FROM GOD



The concept of inheritance isn’t just a subject in


Scripture. It stretches all the way from Genesis to Revelation


The word “inheritance” can be found in the Word of God no less


Than 300 times and appears with frequency in both Testaments




God has made me/you an heir but do you declare it ?  Do you stand on that promise?




I am a real live heir of GOD and a Co-Heirs of Jesus Christ



Because I am a woman, technically I’m an heirness




“ GIVING THANKS TO THE FATHER, WHO HAS QUALIFIED YOU TO SHARE IN

THE INHERITANCE OF THE SAINTS IN LIGHT.”

--COLOSSIANS 1:12




“THE LINES HAVE FALLEN FOR ME IN PLEASANT PLACES; INDEED, I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL INHERITANCE.”

-----PSALM 16: 5-6



WHAT GOD’S WORD SAYS I CAN DO   I CAN DO BECAUSE THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE
HAS ALREADY EQUIPPED ME  WITH THE GIFTS N TALENTS  AND PAVED THE ROAD 

FOR ME/YOU



THE KEY TO HAVING  AN IMPACT IS  FOR ME TO KEEP  MY EYE ON GOD 



I DECLARE IT
