You don't have to pray to attract great things, because great things are attracted to you already. Pray that you won't throw them away once they get here.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
We have a lot of choice about whether to interpret something as adversity or as opportunity. I see in myself the tendency at times to make situations worse than they have to be because of my catastrophic interpretation.
Marianne Williamson
The issue is not whether or not you have that power, the issue is whether or not you use it.
Marianne Williamson
I write and speak about personal and spiritual growth. One week I write about illness and another week I speak about relationships and another week I write about work and money and another week I speak to people with obesity issues. I write about whatever wounds seem to cry out for more enlightened solutions, and the love that heals them all.
Marianne Williamson
When we surrender to God, we let go of our attachment to how things happen on the outside, and we become more concerned with what happens on the inside.
Marianne Williamson
Maturity includes the recognition that no one is going to see anything in us that we don't see in ourselves. Stop waiting for a producer. Produce yourself.
Marianne Williamson
Every act of kindness on your part is a boost to your own immune system.
Marianne Williamson
The one good thing about failure is that it makes you consider doing things a different way.
Marianne Williamson
I'm better than I used to be. Better than I was yesterday. But hopefully not as good as I'll be tomorrow.
Marianne Williamson
I think that every moment you succumb to cynicism, you're taking energy away from change.
Marianne Williamson
Every relationship either gives energy to us or withholds energy from us, according to what we give to or withhold from it. And it's not only our behavior toward others, but our very thoughts about them, that builds and/ or destroys relationships.
Marianne Williamson
Often miracles are happening right in front of our eyes, but we think they should look different, so we miss them though they're right there.
Marianne Williamson
No matter what is happening now, events will ultimately bend toward love the way a flower bends toward sunlight.
Marianne Williamson
In asking for miracles, we are seeking a practical goal: a return to inner peace. We’re not asking for something outside us to change, but for something inside us to change. We’re looking for a softer orientation to life.
Marianne Williamson
Relationship are part of the vast plan for our enlightenment.
Marianne Williamson
No true search for enlightenment ignores the suffering of other sentient beings. Ever. We simply need to create a way to address that suffering while remaining in a blissful center.
Marianne Williamson
I believe we are shown the path that is right as soon as we ask for it. Then we must live in the world and in some way express what we have learned.
Marianne Williamson
God is the electricity and we are the lamps.
Marianne Williamson
I do believe 50 is the new 40 and 60 is the new 50. Hell, maybe 60 can be the new 40, I don't know. I believe that when we give ourselves permission, we can live with an excitement and heat and passion that most women in previous generations were unable to attain.
Marianne Williamson
We don't ask God for too much in fact, we ask for too little. Turn to Him for everything. Give everything to God.
Marianne Williamson
Truth will always reassert itself, given a symbolic three days. Three days represents the time it takes between the crucifixion and the resurrection, between an open-hearted response to hurt and the experience of rebirth that will always follow.
Marianne Williamson
