Description
Bestselling author of Return to Love and Law of Divine Compensation, Marianne Williamson shows people how to live without fear or worry in The Gift of Change. The time in which we now live is more difficult and stressful than people are willing to admit. We live with an abiding sense of collective anxiety. Williamson shows how we are paralyzed in our current state of fear and anger because we are not facing and dealing with the true causes of our anxieties and fears. Williamson reveals that fear and worry do not need to be the only tools in our tool box for dealing with problems in the world. As we learn to trust God and the love that surrounds us and guides us, we will see that what causes us pain is an opportunity for growth, healing, and miracles that can transform us and our world. Williamson delivers hope and healing as she illuminates ten basic changes that each of us can make as we learn to view the world through the eyes of love instead of fear.

Reviews"[Williamson's] voice is strong medicine for our woundedness, warmth, insistence, good humor, and a little light to see by." -- Anne Lamott, author of Traveling Mercies "Williamson takes her readers seriously enough to ask serious attention of them and to offer them much in return." -- Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People "Never has a society needed this wisdom and guidance more than now." -- Caroline Myss, author of Sacred Contracts and Anatomy of the Spirit "[From] one of our most profound teachers of transformational wisdom, this book is truly a gift to the world." -- Wayne W. Dyer, author of The Power of Intention "Williamson challenges us to live in the present moment ... that it can be a portal to the miraculous." -- Spirituality and Health magazine "Marianne Williamson challenges us to dive beneath the slick surface of our everyday life to encounter-and embrace-what frightens us most." -- Body & Soul
