Marianne Williamson is so loving, and so full of wisdom, that reading her is like giving your soul a warm bubble bath, with scented candles burning, and a glass of wine in hand. The cares of the material world just drop away, and you feel both soothed and refreshed at the same time. Her words speak directly to our battered souls who endure a material world intent on making us think we're unworthy of anything.
And as Marianne says, 'we're not depressed because the world is depressed, the world is depressed because we are'. No kidding.
So, Marianne's latest book speaks to us about abundance, and her timing could be better. We could all use some abundance just to keep up with this depressed world's economy. Marianne takes us through, first who we are, and why we ALL deserve God's abundance, to why we don't have it, and how we can get it. Throughout every chapter you find short guided prayers and meditations that can start us on our way to having all the we could ever dream of in this world.
And, ironically, it's by giving up the world and concentrating on who we really are, that we are rewarded with the abundance of the world. Doesn't every parent want the best for their child? Can we expect anything less from our loving Creator/parent/father/mother/God?
Starting off with a quote by the brilliant, and very spiritual Albert Einstein, Marianne totally sums up her book. "The most important decision we make is whether we believe we live in a friend or a hostile universe." Over my many years on Earth, I've noted that people get exactly what they expect out of life. Marianne tells us why this is.
Chapter by chapter, she shows us how to not only have abundance in our lives, but how to live better, richer, more loving, and fulfilling lives. Marianne says that the only thing blocking us from God's abundance(love personified) is our shutting ourselves off from love. And isn't that the truth. Put love first in your life, and you'll be amazed at how the universe rewards you. As I've always told our children, and anyone else unfortunately to be around when I get on my soapbox, is do what you LOVE and you'll always be happy. Do what you love and the money will flow towards you because you'll be doing it with passion, and excitement, and you'll be a joy to be around. People can't help but want to be around someone passionate about what they're doing because it's magnetic. See, I can't even give a review without getting on my 'do what you love' soapbox.
But seriously, Marianne Williamson is a wonderful writer and she gives us just what we need to feel whole and loved by God our creator. And the only thing I didn't like about this book was the cover. It looks dated, and a bit depressing. Marianne should be on the cover because she practically glows with soul light.
