Everyday Grace: Having Hope, Finding Forgiveness, and Making Miracles [B0300]
Williamson, Marianne
2002 HCDJ in gift-worthy condition. From activist, spiritual leader, New York Times-bestselling author, and 2020 presidential candidate Marianne Williamson comes a book about everyday peace, everyday hope, and everyday grace. In these pages, author Marianne Williamson acts as a guide back to the spiritual source, exploring the ways to nurture a thriving soul in a harsh world. The large and small difficulties of our days challenge us to open our hearts and minds. With an attitude of hope, a call to forgive, and a celebration of miracles, Williamson helps readers to find sacred footing on ordinary ground. For no matter what, there is always an opportunity to be happy. Everyone is entitled to the pleasures of everyday grace.
From Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Everyday Grace by Marianne Williamson provides a respite for the mind from one's current worldview and changes its focus to the power of spirit, healing, and love. Williamson provides wisdom on being open to the opportunities that God provides us through grace and how changing our mindset can help us experience that openness and ultimately His grace."; "I'm not the target audience for this book since it's very heavily Christian (though she does also mention some Buddhist and other ideas at times) and I'm pagan. I definitely had to filter while reading. But I still found a lot to like about it and a lot that could apply and it wasn't that hard to do since she does a lot of comparing God to love, describing God already being in us, etc. I picked it up awhile ago but started reading it this month right after my beloved corgi passed because the second part of the title "Having Hope, Finding Forgiveness, & Making Miracles" seemed apt. I worried it might be too heavy, but it was not in my case. I ended up reading the last 150 pages or so in one sitting."; "When I learned Marianne Williamson was running for President, I knew I had read her, so I checked my personal library and found three of her books, which I read years ago. I re-read all them by order of publication and just finished Everyday Grace. What enlightenment, everyone should read them; she has studied all the major religions and shows how they mesh together. However, my take away from her writing is "We should love ourselves as we are encouraged to love others" and "We should all mind our own business." If we do not follow these precepts, our culture, spiritual ideas, etc. will all tend to disappear as the whole world is destroyed by those who would grab control of people, ideas, money, etc. for their own benefit. Read Marianne Williamson and change the world!"
