Author Millie Gonzalez Martelino Pens Faith-Based Book "Miraclets" On Spiritual Awakenings, Growth

June 30, 2011 - PRLog -- Bristow, VA - - Author Millie Martelino has published a new book titled "Miraclets: Life's Precious Little Blessings", a collection of inspiring, faith-infused stories that stress how we humans can get through the most challenging of times in our lives by relying on God and his Divine intervention.  “My book is about the times in my own life when I needed that extra help, that additional strength, or even supernatural intervention that could fix things for me when nothing earthy or mortal could rectify the situation,” says Ms. Martelino.  “At least, that is the message I want to convey…no matter what happens call for Divine assistance…it might just surprise you.”

"Miraclets" published by well known Christian-based publisher, Tate Publishing (see "Miraclets" at http://www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore/book.php?w=978-1-61663-751-4) comprises personal inspirational stories from author Ms. Martelino on her relationship with God and how He can help with personal struggles and challenges in everyday life - - featuring chapters that range from “Expectant Faith:  The Antidote of Obstacles” to “Angels On My Sidelines” to “Reap What You Sow.”  

Tate Publishing says this about Ms. Martelino’s "Miraclets":  “Have you ever lost something, like a pair of sunglasses, and wished that it would miraculously appear?  Well, believe or not, it can, and this book proves just that.  In MIRACLETS:  LIFE’S PRECIOUS LITTLE BLESSINGS, author Millie Gonzalez Martelino shares with you the most private, tender moments of her faith in action, which blessed her with many amazing miracles throughout her life.  God is all-powerful and wants to bless us, but rarely do we allow him the chance to show this to us.  Millie has never been afraid to ask God for his blessings, and she has always had strong faith that God can do anything and will always be there for her, providing whatever she may need.  And God always does provide for her!  Nothing is too big or small for God.  Miracles happen all the time, so don't waste another minute wishing for things—learn what you too can do to be a part of all God has to offer in this easy-to-read book, perfect for every reader!.”

Continued author Ms. Martelino:  “I’ve read about people who lived saintly lives and who either performed miracles themselves or received big miracles in their lifetimes.  These were special people destined for special purposes in life.  Miracles – since they are neither made by man nor nature – suggest a power behind it all, that is supernatural and that can accomplish the impossible for the good of the people or the world.  By comparison the little happenings that I refer to as the precious little blessings of my life are just each an iota of a miracle, tiny, little gifts – hence – I call it miraclets,” author Martelino explains about her new book "Miraclets".

When asked what "Miraclets" means especially to her, Ms. Martelino replied:  “ 'Miraclets' to me are little Divine intercessions that help people in need when they seek Divine help.  Most often, people seek help when faced with an incurable disease, when they have to make very crucial decisions or choices, when they lose their jobs, their homes, and are financially ruined or when their family is breaking apart.  I truly believe that if one can maintain a consistent relationship with his Divine Maker then he or she will never lack for Miraclets…that is what makes life all the sweeter.”

She also has a very special reason for her favorite part of "Miraclets".  “It’s the last chapter of my book,” says Ms Martelino.  “My mother was on her deathbed and I prayed to Blessed Andre Bessette to intercede for me to have an emissary escort my mother to the hereafter.  I did not know much about Blessed Andre at that moment.  After a series of occurrences, I was completely stunned to later find out that it was Blessed Andre himself, who came to my mother’s aid in her time of need.”
