PONDER on THIS for Thursday, September 12th, 2013 by Marianne Williamson in EVERYDAY GRACE
“I once saw a pseudo-Buddhist graffito that read, “Don’t just do something – sit there!” It’s humorous, but it’s also a good spiritual directive. Where the ego would have us believe, “I’ve got to do something! I’ve got to do … Continue reading
PONDER on THIS for Thursday, June 7th, 2012 by Marianne Williamson in EVERYDAY GRACE

“Often, when the modern mind experiences itself as bored, it’s actually merely addicted to cheap stimulation, having been trained by television and so forth to constantly jump out of its center. Learning how to slowly and purposefully arrange flowers in … Continue reading
PONDER on THIS for Monday, March 8th, 2010 by Marianne Williamson in EVERYDAY GRACE
“We should not have to choose between being in the flow of God’s love and having a successful career. Indeed, the former fosters the latter. Yet in our society, it’s very easy to buy in to the ego’s perspective on … Continue reading
PONDER on THIS for Wednesday, May 27th, 2009 by Marianne Williamson in EVERYDAY GRACE
“Whenever you are angry, know you’re hurting yourself. Ask for a healing. Ask to experience your own angelic nature, that you might see beyond someone else’s behavior to the angel, however wounded, within them. Given the unity of all minds, … Continue reading
