"Achievement doesn't come from what we do, but from who we are..." (from the card titled Personal Power). Marianne Williamson shows us quite a bit about herself in this, her latest work. In this beautiful boxed set of 50 cards, Williamson shows us how to confront many areas of human experience and some of the issues we individually, and collectively face. She provides universal truths derived from many faiths and traditions, with the main concept revolving around the idea that, all that is good is derived out of love. On the Health and Healing card, she states, "Illness is a sign of separation from God, and our healing lies in returning to him. The return to God is merely the return to love".
Beautiful photographic images adorn the very durable cards, with one side, displaying the subject, the other side, the words of inspiration. Besides those already discussed, topics include: personal power, the future of the planet, war and peace, life and death, learning from children, relationships, healthy eating, and God's love.
Regardless your spiritual orientation, you will find peace, comfort and renewed hope by reading these inspiring cards. Try choosing one at random each day and living its principles, or, look for the applications in your life that day.
One only wishes that there were an accompanying booklet where Williamson could elaborate further on some of these spiritual concepts. But, if you want to explore Williamson's ideas more indepth, the cards are derived from some of her previous works, such as: Illuminata, A women's Worth, and a Return to Love.
This makes a wonderful gift for yourself or someone close, perhaps in need of a little TLC. Enjoy and take some of these words to heart. Williamson, lecturer and best-selling author, is also a spiritual leader at Renaissance Unity Church in Warren, MI.
